Question
Why do modern historians reject the account of a mass exodus from Delhi to Daulatabad?

Solution
Modern historians reject the idea of a mass exodus from Delhi to Daulatabad because historical evidence shows that Delhi was not completely emptied of its population. Records and archaeological findings indicate that construction activities continued in Delhi during that period, which would not have been possible if the entire population had been forced to leave.
