Note 21 — The Eleventh New Year’s Feast after the auspicious Accession.

Alexander Rogers translation

Probably this is the Chimnī Begam, a daughter of S͟hāh Jahān, whose grave is near that of the saint K͟hwāja Muʿīnu-d-dīn Chis͟htī (“Rajputana Gazetteer,” ii, 62). Probably Chimnī should be Chamanī, which means ‘verdant’ and comes from chaman, a garden. Perhaps she died of smallpox. It was in the summer. ↑
