So let's start with our task of dismantling the narrative. The claim for the marraige in the source he used has its citations as follow. None of which are contemporary or even near contemporary. It's nansi ri khyat (17th century) & mirat-i-sikandari(17th century) as evidences for Image the marraiges claimed to be happened in 15th century.

And the source for the claim. Ahh let me guess ashiqui a fictional account by khusru rather than any historical one. Even his own historical account no where mention this shit. And not refuted?? What's left in it to be refuted?? The source claims alleged capture of devaldevi in 2nd invasion ofgujrat dated to be 1306 again the only source ever recording this claim of 2nd invasion is ashiqui only no other contemporary ever penned down any invasion of gujrat in 1306.
