Since ancient period, India has been a favourable place for adventurers and fortune seekers of different lands. Among these foreign adventurers, Iranis and Turanis have come to India as scholars, saints, soldiers, conquerors, administrators, adventurers and founders of principalities during successive periods of Indian history from 6th century B.C to 7th century A.D. However, during the medieval period, due to the unstable political conditions in Iran and Central Asia, Iranis and Turanis immigration to India increased on a large scale.
