Please only add those facts with credible references. --Altruism 10:39, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Dear Mr Altruism,
Vepachedu pages are a poor source of Telugu history. For years, the draft histroy is incomplete. In addition, many comments of Vepachedu betray his bias and prejudice to certain communities. Many of his remarks lack historical basis. It is unfortunate that his webpages are widely referred by certain groups elated by "glorious" accounts given by Vepachedu. Please delete Vepachedu references and add books by Kotha Bhavaiah Choudary and M. Somasekhara Sarma.
Gannama Nayak (Malik Maqbul) was not a treacherous person. He was captured along with Prataparudra, Harihara, Bukka, Jagannatha Pandit etc by Ulugh Khan and taken to Delhi. Prataparudra committed suicide on the way. The others were converted to Islam. Harihara & Bukka weere sent to Dwarasamudram to put down Hoysala rebellion. They reconverted to Hinduism and established Vijayanagar empire. Maqbul (Gannama Nayak) did not have this opportunity as he was sent to far-away Multan to administer Sindh. He proved his worth there. He was sent to Warangal as a Governor when Musunuri Kapaya Nayak asserted independence, because Gamnnama was familiar with Warangal. However, Kapaya repulsed Gannama's attack. It is possible that Gannama made a half-hearted attack on his fellow Nayak. Both were together earlier serving Prataparudra. Later, Maqbul was sent to Gujarat where again he proved his worth. He was taken into Sultan's court and earned a great name as a capable Wazir. He was given the honour "Khan-i-Jahan". He died a natural death and a big mausoleum was bulit in his honour, which stands to this day, near Nizamuddin railway station in Delhi.Kumarrao 12:33, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
