Bakhtiyar Khalji's Conquest of Nadia

Ikhtiyar al-Din Muhammad Bakhtiyar Khalji's capture of Nadia, associated with 1204-1205, marked a major turning point in Bengal's political history. The fall of the Sena capital center and subsequent movement toward Lakhnauti/Gaur shifted the region's ruling structure and opened a new phase of Turkic-led state formation in Bengal.
