Alauddin Ali Shah

Alauddin Ali Shah

Alauddin Ali Shah ("reign:" 1339-1342) was an independent ruler of Lakhnauti, the old capital of Bengal.ABM Shamsuddin Ahmed, [http://search.com.bd/banglapedia/HT/A_0162.htm Alauddin Ali Shah] , Banglapedia: The National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh, Asiatic Society of Bangladesh, Dhaka, "Retrieved: 2007-12-16"] He ascended to power in 1339 by killing the governor loyal to Sultan Muhammad bin Tughluq and taking opportunity of bin Tughluq's involvement in other areas of his Sultanate. Around the same time, in 1338, Fakhruddin Mubarak Shah of Sonargaon and Haji Ilyas or Shamsuddin Ilyas Shah of Satgaon, the founder of the Ilyas Shahi dynasty who is sometimes referred to as Alauddin's foster brother, became independent as well, and thus began a tripartite power struggle in Bengal. Ibn Batuta described the struggle between him and Fakhruddin Shah as a bitter one. During his rule of nearly three years, he transferred his capital from Lakhnauti to Pandua.
