Pukhtun Resistance against the Mughuls during 1670’s
Abstract
Mughul-Pukhtun conflict is one of the important chapters of Indian history. They on number of occasions locked horns with each other. However, the 1670s resistance of the Pukhtuns occupies a significant place in Mughul-Pukhtun tussle. A specific incident in 1672 ignited the controversy which, afterwards, turned into a resistance movement. Aimal Khan Mohmand and Darya Khan Afridi were the torch bearers of the movement. Aimal Khan crowned himself king and struck coins in his name. In this research paper an attempt has been made to scrutinize the aforementioned issue and reach an understandable conclusion, as different sets of scholars have viewed in with their own perspective.
