Comment : 
Mahmud Shah II Khilji was a ruler of the Malwa Sultanate during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. His reign (1510–1531) is notable for the Sultanate's internal instability, external threats, and ultimate decline under the pressures of regional powers like the Gujarat Sultanate and the Mughals. Very scarce.
