   Hope it helps! 😀 😀

   Explanation:

   Rather than appointing aristocrats and

   landed chieftains as governors, the early Delhi Sultans,

   especially Iltutmish, favoured their special slaves

   purchased for military service, called bandagan in

   Persian. They were carefully trained to man some of

   the most important political offices in the kingdom.

   Since they were totally dependent upon their master,

   the Sultan could trust and rely upon them.
