Episode 255

from BHARAT NAMA

After another generation of bloody warfare, the throne of Delhi was bestowed upon Shah Alam I. Also known as Bahadur Shah I, his reign was short and mostly focused on reconciliation with Rajputs, severed by his father Aurangzeb. He looked over the rise of the Sikh Empire and the initial Maratha Empire. Historians often cite the inability of Shah Alam and his successors and their indulgence in luxury, women and wine as a cause for the downfall of the mighty Mughal Empire.
