His death marks the end of the Mughal dynasty. Where are the descendants of Mughals today? Are they still as wealthy as they were once? No one knows where they are. Professor Aslam Pervez, an historian of Bahadur Shah II's reign and a founding member of the Mughal Trust, told "There are so many people who claim to be descended. The Mughals were scattered, many ran away from Delhi, to Hyderabad, after the mutiny and no-one knows who went where," he said. Due to the nature of the deposition of the dynasty, after a The princes were mounted on a bullock-cart and driven towards the city of Delhi. As they approached the city gate, a crowd of people again started to gather around them, and Hodson ordered the three princes to get off the cart and to strip off their top garments. He then took a carbine from one of his troopers and shot them dead before stripping them of their signet rings, turquoise arm bands and bejewelled swords. Their bodies were ordered to be displayed in front of a kotwali, or police station, and left there to be seen by all. The gate near where they were killed is still called the Khooni Darwaza, or 'Bloody Gate'.

Ten days after his 63rd birthday, the greatest of the Great Moguls (or Mughals) died of dysentery in his capital of Agra. A ruler since his teens, Jalal-ud-Din Muhammad Akbar had brought two-thirds of the Indian sub-continent into an empire which included Afghanistan, Kashmir and all of present-day India and Pakistan. His subjects acclaimed him ‘Lord of the Universe’. Akbar was not an Indian. His ancestors were Mongol chieftains in Central Asia and his mother was Persian.

At the same time, he understood that to rule such a huge area required the support of all its people and though himself brought up as a Muslim, he did away with much of his predecessors’ discrimination against Hindus, Parsees and Christians, and recruited them to the service of his regime. No man, Akbar said, should be penalized for his religion or prevented from changing it if he chose. Stocky and not more than 5ft 7in tall, with a lucky wart on the left side of his nose, Akbar was masterful, physically tough and energetic.

He loved to stage discussions between proponents of rival faiths and his Muslim theologians accepted his judgement on knotty points of Islamic law. He invited Jesuit missionaries to his court and s...
