Solution
The task of the conquest of Deccan had been entrusted by Alauddin to his military commander Malik Kafur. Malik Kafur captured an immense booty which consisted of hundreds of elephants, thousands of horses and gold and jewels in large quantities. But Southern India was not annexed. Its rulers had to acknowledge the lordship of Delhi Sultan and pay him tribute in return for peace and protection.
