Khan Jahan Ali

Khan Jahan Ali, also called Ulugh Khan, was a Muslim commander and saint who governed the Sundarbans region of Khalifatabad for the Bengal sultans. A noble under Delhi's Tughlaq sultans, he appears to have migrated to Bengal after Timur sacked the city in 1398 and was made governor.

Clearing the mangrove forests of the Ganges Delta, he laid out roads, bridges, tanks and hundreds of baked-brick mosques around his capital at Bagerhat; the great Sixty Dome Mosque was completed in 1459 and gave its name to the Khan Jahan style. He died in October 1459 and was buried beside one of his reservoirs.
