History of Multan
1200-1300 AD:
In 1218 A.D. Changez Khan invaded Western Turkistan and for the next three centuries
history of multan is practically the history of incursions from Western and Central Asia
to which the invasion of Changez gave rise. During this period multan was nominally
subject to the Delhi Empire. There were, however, two periods when multan was practically
a separate Kingdom independent of Delhi. At times the province was held by powerful
governors who, though, unable to secure independence, were powerful factors in the
dynastic changes of the time.
The Administration of multan suffered due to preoccupation of Delhi Empire in repelling
the repeated raids of Mughals from Khurasan and Central Asia. In 1 284 A.D. the Mughals
under Taimur Khan, defeated and killed prince Muhammad, known as the Martyr Prince who
then ruled multan. In 1305 A.D. an invasion under Aibak Khan was repelled by the
redoubtable warrior Ghazi Beg Tughlak, who is said to have 29 times defeated the invading
hordes. In 1 327 A.D. a force under Turmsharin Khan over-ran the distt. and retreated on
payment of bribe.
