	E2kB - Mediaval History of Etawah

		Meanwhile the Bibi Raaji, the Jaunpur Sultan's mother, was actively intriguing against her son at Jaunpur, and she succeeded in 1453 A.D. in placing his younger brother, Hussain Khan, on the throne and in effecting the assasination of Muhammad Shah.
		Etawah seems at this time to have been the headquarters of the Jaunpur chief, for we find that the Bibi Raji, the Queen-mother, died here in 1486 A.D. and the fact that the surrounding country acknowledged his supremacy is indicated by Husain's receipt of condolences from the rulers of Gwalior, Biana and Chandarwar.
