Munim Khan was the first Mughal governor of [[Bengal Subah]] from 1574 to 1575.<ref name=bpedia>{{cite Banglapedia|author=Husain, AKM Yaqub|article=Munim Khan Khan-i-Khanan}}</ref>

Khan was a [[Persianised Turk]] whose ancestors originally hailed from the city of [[Andijan]] in present-day [[Uzbekistan]]. His father's name was Miran Beg Andijani, and his foster brother was Mirza Askari.<ref name=bpedia/>

==Career==
In 1560, [[Bairam Khan]] retired from his role as the Empire's [[Vakil]] (prime minister) and [[Mughal emperor]] [[Akbar]] then appointed Munim for this role. Under Akbar's orders, Munim went into war with [[Mah Chuchak Begum]] who had transgressed but was defeated by her in [[Jalalabad]] and Munim's son, Ghani Khan, was executed.<ref>{{cite book|author=Rekha Misra|title=Women in Mughal India, 1526–1748 A.D.|publisher=Munshiram Manoharlal|year=1967|pages=24}}</ref> After the [[Uzbeks]] of [[Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh|Jaunpur]] rebelled, Munim Khan was tasked as the Governor of Jaunpur and the eastern districts.

Akbar sent Khan to suppress the independent [[Sultan of Bengal]], [[Daud Khan Karrani]], who had refused to recognise the Mughal Empire. After initially failing, Munim Khan successfully took control of [[Hajipur]] and [[Patna]].

He later captured the erstwhile capital of Bengal, [[Tanda, Bengal|Khwaspur Tandah]], on 25 September 1574.<ref name=bpedia/> During the [[Battle of Tukaroi]], held on 3 March 1575, Munim Khan forced Daud Karrani to sign a treaty which left only [[Odisha]] under Daud's control. Munim Khan then transferred Bengal's capital from Tanda to [[Gaur]].

==Personal life==
Munim Khan had 8 [[concubine]]s, and was the father of two children:
* Ghani Khan - executed in [[Kabul]] at the orders of Empress [[Mah Chuchak Begum]].
* Sahila Banu Begum - married to Emperor [[Jahangir]] in 1607{{citation needed|date=December 2020}}

==Death==
