Mughal Kashmir

The Sarkar of Kashmir (Urdu: کشمیر سرکار), later the Subah of Kashmir (Urdu: کشمیر صوبہ), was a province of the Mughal Empire encompassing the Kashmir region, now divided between Pakistan (Muzaffarabad division) and India (Kashmir division). It was separated from the Kabul Subah and was made into an imperial province under administrative reforms carried out by emperor Shah Jahan in 1648. The province ceased to exist when Durrani forces, under Ahmed Shah Abdali, entered Kashmir in 1752 and captured Quli Khan, the last Mughal Subahdar.
