Ghiyath-ud-din-Tughluq sent his eldest son Ulugh Khan (who later became Muhammad bin Tughluq) in 1321 AD to Deogir to plunder the Hindu kingdoms of Arangal (known as Warangal today) and Tilang (now part of Telangana). His first attempt was failure but after four months when Ghiyath-ul-din-Tughluq sent large army for his son asking him to attempt plundering Arangal and Tilang again then at this time he succeeded and Arangal fell to the Sultans of Delhi. Arangal was given a new name Sultanpur all the captured wealth and treasury were transferred from this captured kingdom to Delhi Sultanate. And from here on Sheher Sultanpur became an important part of this Sultanate.
