Emperor Muhammad Tughluq came to the town.
He founded the Tughluq dynasty
He came to Beed during the rule of Muhammad Tughluq.
Beed remained under Khaljis until 1320 when Ghiyas-ud-Din Tughluq(1320-25) took over.
Ghiyasuddin Tughluq 1220-1250 is credited to be the first
ruler who encouraged digging canals.
He founded the Tughluq dynasty and reigned over the Sultanate of Delhi from 1320 to 1325.
It is quite possible that Muhammad bin Tughluq may have been referred in this tradition as Yavana ruler.
Muhammad bin Tughluq is indeed an extraordinary personality,
and to determine his place in history is a difficult task.
Later, Muhammad bin Tughluq conquered parts of the Deccan,
and temporarily shifted his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad in Maharashtra.
Its reign started in 1320 in Delhi
when Ghazi Malik assumed the throne under the title of Ghiyath al-Din Tughluq.
In 1323,
Ghiyath al-Din sent his son Ulugh Khan(later Muhammad bin Tughluq) on an expedition to the Kakatiya capital Warangal.
But the armies of the feisty Sultan Muhammad Tughluq in Delhi had chased them back across the Indus River.
Despite the warnings of his councilors, Muhammad ibn Tughluq sent a sizable army up to the north in 1337.
Since Hammir was now the ruler of
Mewar, he refused to accept the suzerainty of the Sultan of Delhi, Muhammad Bin Tughluq.
Tārīkh-e-Bīr(history of Beed) mentions that Muhammad bin Tughluq named it Bir(Arabic‘Well') after building a fort and several wells in and around the town.
While it is uncertain in which year did
Ran a Hammir pummel Muhammad Bin Tughluq into oblivion, it is certain that this battle was
fought between 1333 and 1336.
According to the famous Moroccan explorer in history, Ibn Battuta, who was seeking employment at the Tughlaq court,
the murder of Ghiyath al-Din Tughluq was conspired by his son, Jauna Khan.
