Reading western history books, many Mughal emperors were portrayed as bloodthirsty and genocidal, though they did point out that the founder (Babur?) did not intent in founding an Islamic state, but rather a Mongol-inspired one, hence the name. Any truths to this? I understand many member of this forum are from former Mughal controlled territories and may hold a bias, which is expected, but can it not be denied that SOME Mughal emperors engaged in blameworthy acts?
