Dealt with in great death of H. H. Nawab Mir Jafar Ali Khan of Surat, to whom Mirza Ghalib had paid glowing tributes, as he saw in him a role model. The similar situations the two found themselves in during the political turmoil in India was a stimulus for Ghalib to praise the prince in his writing.
