Munim Khan

Munim Khan Khan-i-Khanan was a Mughal general under both emperors Humayun and Akbar. He was titled Khan-i-Khanan when Akbar appointed him as Vakil (Prime Minister). Then in 1564 he became the Subahdar of Jaunpur. He also served as the governor of Bengal and Bihar during 1574–1575.

Origin
His ancestors were from Andijan (in present-day Uzbekistan). His father was Miran Beg Andijani.

Expeditions against Daud Khan Karrani
Akbar sent Munim Khan to suppress the Sultan of Bengal, Daud Khan Karrani. Failing to settle in the first time, Munim Khan successfully took control of Hajipur and Patna under direct initiative of emperor Akbar. Munim Khan was then appointed as the governor of Bengal and Bihar. He later captured the Afghan capital of Bengal, Tandah, on 25 September 1574. On the battle of Tukaroi, held on 3 March 1575, Munim Khan forced Daud Shah to sign a treaty which left only Orissa under Daud Shah's control. Munim Khan transferred the capital from Bengal from Tandah to Gaur.

Death
Munim died on 23 October 1575 in Tandah by an epidemic plague. After his death, Daud Khan Karrani retracted and captured Gaur again.
