Sher Khan (Bengali: শের খান, Persian: شير خان) was the governor of North Bengal from 1268 to 1272 CE.[1]
History
He was appointed by the Sultan of Delhi Ghiyasuddin Balban to serve as the Governor of Bengal after the death of Tatar Khan. Sher Khan ruled quietly for four years as he received little funds and power from Delhi. Thus, most of the province remained in the hands of the Eastern Ganga dynasty.[2][page needed] He was succeeded by Amin Khan Aitigin after his death.[3]
