The water carrier who was Mughal emperor for a day
In 1539, water carrier Nizam Bishti saved Mughal Emperor Humayun from drowning during the Battle of Chausa. In gratitude, Humayun made Nizam ruler of Agra for a day. Nizam commemorated this by turning his water bag into mementos. His brief rule underscores the theme of courage and merit over heritage.
