Mutawassil Khan

He descended from a powerful aristocratic family, with his father being a prominent noble of Aurangzeb Alamgir and his grandfather one of the most famous Mughal Viziers.

During Emperor Muhammad Shah's reign, he accompanied the eminent Nizam-Ul-Mulk Asaf Jah from Malwa to the Deccan, where he distinguished himself with remarkable valor in the battle against Sayyid Dilawar Ali Khan while leading one of the wings of the Nizam's army.

In recognition of his extraordinary bravery, he was bestowed with a prestigious rank of 3000, accompanied by 2000 horsemen, the exalted title of Bahadur, and the distinguished gifts of a flag and drums.

Ultimately, he was honored with the title of Rustam Jang and appointed as the Governor of Bijapur, where he met his demise in 1744.

His grandfather, Sa'adullah Khan, was a much-revered Grand Vizier of the Mughals during the reign of Emperor Shah Jahan.
