CX.
TAZKIRATU-L UMARÁ
OF
KEWAL RÁM.

THIS is a Biographical account of the nobles of Hindústán, from the time of Akbar to Bahádur Sháh, by Kewal Rám, son of Raghunáth Dás Agarwála, inhabitant of Kasna in Bulandshahr, written in the year 1194 A.H. (1780 A.D.). It gives an account of all dignitaries above the mansab of two hundred, and of the Hindú Rájas who distinguished themselves during that period. It contains very little more than the patents of nobility, privi­leges and insignia bestowed upon each person, and the occasion of his promotion. It is altogether a very meagre compilation compared with the Ma-ásiru-l Umará.
