Abstract
The Khaljis who themselves had been denied high posts on the coarseness of their habits, opened the doors of higher government posts, unlike the predecessors, to all without distinction of race, birth, and even creed in some cases. Every person could rise in status and position according to his abilities. With this novelty in state affairs, the rulers not only subdued the accursed Mongols but also earned the unwavering loyalty of the officials. This paper mainly draws upon Tarikh-i-Firoz Shahi and Tabaqat-i-Nasiri.
