Answer

After the death of Wazir Mahmud Gawa, the unity and power of the Bahamian sultanate began to weaken.
  • Subsequent rulers proved weak and did not have the power to control the aristocracy.
  • With the weakening of Bahm's power, powerful aristocrats began to establish their own independent kingdoms.
  • Kalimulla Shah, the last sultan of the Bahamian dynasty, tried unsuccessfully to get Babur's help in establishing his dynasty.
  • His death in $1527$ marked the end of the Bahamian sultanate.
  • After the end of the Bahamian sultanate, five different sultanates were established in South India.
  • The sultanates of Bijapur, Golconda and Ahmednagar lasted till the Mughal period.
  • The Imadshahi of Varad merged with the kingdom of Bidar in the kingdom of Ahmednagar and the kingdom of Bidar merged with the kingdom of Bijapur.
$1.$ Adilshahi of Bijapur: It was the most important sultanate of the five sultanates. Its founder was Yusuf Adil Shah.
  • He belonged to the Shia sect.
  • $1686$ Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb conquers Bijapur state and annexes it to the Mughal Empire.
  • Govalkonda Kutumbshahi: This sultanate was also important.
  • The Qutb Shahi of Govalkonda was erected at Khandiyar in the Hindu kingdom of Warangal.
  • A column dynasty was established in Govalkonda.
  • His reign was very prosperous.
  • After the assassination of the Sultan, the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb excommunicated him.
  • Nizamshahi of Ahmednagar: Ahmed was the founder owner of the independent sultanate of Ahmednagar.
  • He conquered the fort of Daulatabad and built a city called Ahmednagar.
  • He also helped Hindu kings.
  • He was immersed in luxuries so the regime was weakened and the Sultanate of Ahmednagar was annexed to the Mughal Empire.
  • Imadshahi of Varad: Varad was the first to break away from the Sultanate of Baham.
  • His subo kuttehulla was originally Hindu.
  • After converting to Islam and taking advantage of the turmoil following the death of Mahmoud Gawa, he established his own independent state in Varad.
  • In $1527,$ the Sultan of Ahmednagar deposed Varad.
  • Bidar of Bidar: Bidar was the center of the Bahamian sultanate.
  • Here the name of the Sultan of Bahman was enough to rule.
  • Amir Ali and his son Amir Hasim Barid established an independent kingdom of Barid Shahi in Bidar.
  • Eventually the Sultanate of Bijapur and the Khalsa merged into their own kingdom.
  • Thus after the fall of the Bahmani Sultanate the provincial provinces established their respective separate powers.
