10.IdX was the fourth medieval city of Delhi established in 1326–1327 by
Muhammad bin Tughlaq (1321–51), of the Delhi Sultanate.
To address the constant threat of the Mongols, Tughlaq built the fortified city
of X (meaning: “Refuge of the World”) subsuming the Adilabad fort that had
been built in the 14th century and also all the establishments lying between
Qila Rai Pithora and Siri Fort.
Neither the city nor the fort has survived. Many reasons have been offered for
such a situation. One of which is stated as the idiosyncratic rule of Mohammed
bin Tughlaq when inexplicably he shifted the capital to Daulatabad in the
Deccan and came back to Delhi soon after.

Chaitra
In leap years, Chaitra has 31 days and starts on March 21 instead. The months
in the first half of the year all have 31 days, to take into account the slower
movement of the sun across the ecliptic at this time.

8. Inspiration behind what ?
• The Jag Mandir built on the island of Lake Pichola, was constructed by the Maharanas of the Sisodia Rajputs of Mewar kingdom. This palace provided a refuge to a certain Mughal prince in the early 1600’s since he rebelled against his father and also because of his mother being a Rajput Hindu lady. Now this Jag Mandir is supposedly to have inspired the prince later in his life in some way. What?
