The ''[[paliya]]'' inscription (VS 1435/1378 CE) at Osa near [[Junagadh]] mentions that Junagadh was under ''thanadar'' named Mahamalik Muhammad Sadik and Raul Mahipaladeva. So it seems that Junagadh was ruled by ''thanadar'' under governor of Gujarat. At the time of this inscription, Farhat-ul-Mulk Rasti Khan was governor of Gujarat who was under [[Delhi Sultanate|Delhi Sultan]] [[Firuz Shah Tughlaq]]. The inscription (VS 1437/1381 CE) in Sudavav, a [[stepwell]] in [[Mahuva, Bhavnagar]] mentions Mahipala and his another younger brother Satyaraja.<ref name="ins1">{{Cite book|url=https://archive.org/stream/in.ernet.dli.2015.54106/2015.54106.Inscriptions-Of-Kathiawad|title=New Indian Antiquary|last=Diskalkar|first=D.
