To consolidate authority and prevent conspiracies, Alauddin Khalji introduced severe administrative and social regulations often grouped as a set of ordinances: confiscations of rebellious nobles’ property, an extensive spy network to monitor officials and marketplaces, bans on alcohol in Delhi to reduce public disorder and restrictions on nobles’ private gatherings to limit political collusion. These measures formed a comprehensive program to curb aristocratic autonomy, ensure loyalty and maintain public order — part of Alauddin’s broader strategy of centralising state control and ensuring a dependable revenue and military base.
