Arrival of Ghiyat al-Din Tughlaq in Tirhut and the fall of the Karnats.

The painting is depicting the arrival of Sultan Ghiyat al-Din Tughlaq of the Tughlaq dynasty (1320-1413), a Turkic dynasty and 3rd dynasty to rule the Delhi Sultanate in the fortified city of Simraungarh, the Capital of Tirhut (Mithila) under the Karnats.

The miniature painting was composed by the author and eyewitness Muhammad Sadr Ala-i in his literary work titled the 'Basātin al-uns'.

Ghiyat al-Din Tughlaq invaded the fortified city of Simraungarh which was the Capital of Mithila during the reign of Karnatas. On the third day, the Tughlaq army attacked and entered the huge fort of Simraungarh whose walls were tall and surrounded by 7 big ditches.

The Last King of the dynasty i.e., Harisimhadeva left the fort and fled northwards (Bhaktapur) with his wife Devaladevi and son Jagatsinghdeva and some troops.

Harisimhadeva died in the way. His wife Devaladevi and son Jagatsinghdeva was welcomed by Rudramalla of Tripura house of Mallas in Bhaktapur who was also the de-facto ruler of Nepala Mandala and brother of Devaladevi. Later Devaladevi married his son Jagatsinghdeva to her brother Rudramalla's widowed daughter and princess Nayak Devi.

Dominance of Karnats in East India after the fall of the Palas of Bengal.

Got an interesting historical fact.

After the decline of the Pala Empire which is also considered the Golden period of Bengal, the kingdoms arose in the regions of Bengal, Mithila and Magadh were of Kannada origin.

• Senas of Bengal (1070-1230) — Its founder Samanta Sena was a migrant from Karnataka (as Deopara Prashasti inscription composed by Umapati Dhara, a minister in the court of Lakshmana Sena mentions).

• Karnats of Mithila (1097-1324) — Its founder Nanyadeva was a commander in Chalukya army arrived in Mithila as part of Chalukya invasions of North (Inscriptions of the Senas describe him as "Karnata-Kulabhusana").The almost 230 years continuous Sovereign reign of Karnats is considered the Golden period of Mithila.

• Pithipatis of Magadh (1120-1290) — Its founder Vallabharāja Devaraksita was Chindaka Naga. Tho he migrated to Magadh from a place called Ratanpur in Chhattisgarh but but his clan i.e., Chindaka Naga were of Kannada origin, migrated to Bastar region of Chhattisgarh from Sindavadi, Karnataka.

All of these Dynasties while of Kannada origin, embraced the local culture & language and adapted it even in the Courts. They propagated the local culture and language.

Senas crowned themselves as 'Gauḍēśvara'.

Karnats crowned themselves as 'Mithileśwara'.

Pithipatis crowned themselves as 'Magadhādipati'.
