When Raja Ramchandradeva had refused to pay annual tributes to Sultan of Delhi, then Malik Kafur (commander of Allauddin Khilji) sent in 1308 to recover Devagiri which was won by Sultan 15 years ago. The Raja was captured and taken as prisoners. Malik brought the Raja and his son to Delhi. The Sultan Allauddin Khilji treated them with all honor, gave him a royal canopy and a title of “Rai Rayan” (King of Kings) and returned him to Devagiri to rule as a vassal of the Delhi Sultanate.
