History

In 1601, Sultan Ismail Adil Shah of Bijapur conquered the fortress of Banganapalle from Raja Nanda Chakravathy. The fort and surrounding districts were placed under the control of his victorious general, Siddhu Sumbal, who held them until 1665. Muhammad Beg Khan-e Rosebahani was granted a perpetual fiefdom of Bangangapalle and the surrounding jagir, but died without a male heir, leaving the jagir of Banganapalle to his grandson and adopted son, Faiz Ali Khan Bahadur. The Mughal emperor Aurangzeb conquered the Sultanate of Bijapur in 1686, but Faiz Ali Khan's fief was secured by the intervention of his maternal uncle, Mubariz Khan, who served as Aurangzeb's viceroy of the Deccan.

Banganapalle was ruled by the descendants of Faiz 'Ali Khan as a fief of the Mughal empire, and, after the Nizam of Hyderabad declared his independence from the Mughals in 1724, a fief of Hyderabad.
