  Gulbarga
When the Bahmani dynasty came to an end, the kingdom broke up into five independent Sultanates and the present Gulbarga district came partly under Bidar[?] and partly under Bijapur[?].
With the conquest of the Deccan by Aurangezeb[?] in the 17th century, Gulbarga passed back to the Mughal Empire.
In the early part of the 18th century when Mughal Empire was declining, Asaf Jha, a general of Aurangzeb, became independent and formed the Hyderabad State in which a major part of Gulbarga area was also included.

Today's map of India is the result of his far sightedness, wisdom and firm determination.

Besides that a documentary film should also be prepared on the life of Sardar Patel which may provide inspiration and guidelines to our coming generations.

It is clear from the relevant passages that Buchanan fervently believed in the great antiquity of Ayodhya as well as the historicity of Rama as he remarked that from his very name, Ramgarh, he was inclined to think that it was a part of the building actually built by Rama.
He also discused various popular beliefs as to whether the ancient temples at Ayodhya were built by Vikrama, the elder (of Ujjain in about 1st century BC) or the latter Vikrama of the 11th century and as to whether the temples were destroyed by Aurangezeb or had been destroyed earlier.
Some scholars hold Buchanan ' found the temple- destruction theory to be very ill-founded' (72), which in fact is a complete misreading of the text.

 Secular Islam.NET: The Pact of Umar, and the status of non-Muslims in Muslim lands   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
It must be noted that conditions changed depending on place and time, usually at the whim of the ruler, some of whom were much more tolerant than others, although the ones considered to be "good" by the religious leaders were usually fanatical zealots vis-a-vis the kafir peoples living in their lands.
Later, Aurangezeb (ruled 1658 to 1707) was held in high regard by Muslims, who saw him as a real warrior and defender of the faith, while Hindus shuddered, and still do, at his unrelieved brutality, slaughtering thousands of Hindus and demolishing their temples, building mosques on their sites.
And anyway, would you find it tolerable to have your most fundamental rights at the mercy of the ruler of the day, whose opinions might change at any time?
