DESTRUCTION BY ALLA-UD-DIN KHILJI

The conquering army, the poet proceeds, burnt villages, devastated the land, plundered people's wealth, took Brahmins, children and women of all castes captive, and flogged them with throngs of raw hide,  carried a moving prison with it and converted the prisoners into obsequious Turks.9

Thus ended the Glory that was Gurjaradesha.


9 G.L. 103-104
