(Ahmad Shah)

29-4-1748
After the death of (Muhammad Shah), his son (Ahmad Shah) ascended the throne of India
At the time of his accession, he was 23 years old and had no experience in the field of administration
Ahmad Shah’s short reign was a period of great disturbance.


Although Ahmad Shah was the hero of the battle of Sarhind, in which Ahmad Shah Abdali was defeated, he lacked qualities of leadership and was unable to manage the affairs of the state

As a result the administration fell into the hands of his Wazir, Safdar Jang.
Safdar Jang was also unable to run the administration proficiently and spent most of his time in internal strife and self-aggrandizement

The Rohillas rose in rebellion and Ahmad Shah Abdali invaded Punjab for the second time and marched towards Delhi.

In order to avoid the destruction of Delhi, Ahmad Shah made peace with Ahmad Shah Abdali by ceding Punjab and Multan
