Alamgīr II

Alamgīr II
in full ʽAzīz al-Dīn ʽAlamgīr II

born June 6, 1699, Multan, India
died Nov. 29, 1769, Delhi

Mughal emperor of India (1754–59).

He was placed on the throne by the imperial vizier Imād al-Mulk Ghāzī al-Dīn and was always the puppet of more powerful men, including the Afghan ruler Ahmad Shah Durrānī, whose agents occupied Delhi in 1757 and made Alamgīr the nominal emperor of Hindustan. He was murdered by Ghāzi al-Dīn, who feared Alamgīr might be captured and used against him in another Afghan invasion.
