message: The other sources doesn't call him Punjabi khatri. Mirat i sikander calls him kshatriya in urdu version, the archive  translated is sounding it like khatri, so no guarantee that it implies Punjabi khatri here a community which wasn't even found in Thanesar, Haryana in early medieval age. Had it been the case Satish Chandra would have mentioned him khatri, he doesn't calls him as such.

message: Gujarat Sultanate allowed war criminals society and empire like the "Ottoman Caliphate" to enter India.
Ottoman Turk arriving in India was as bad omen as the "British Raj".

thread_title:  War Criminal: Ottoman Turks 

message: @Noorullah21 the first source mentions that author is a lawyer by profession, and hence is not a WP:RS. The second source is not peer-reviewed. That of Abraham Eraly is better than either of the two, but he doesn't call Bahadur Shah an Afghan, and cannot be treated as authority for his ethnicity as Eraly is not discussing the origins of the dynasty. Such assumption about Bahadur Shah at best is a WP:FRINGE given that no source suggests that his ancestor, Muzaffar Shah I was an Afghan. Sutyarashi (talk) 19:46, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
