Kirmanis (1)

The Kirmanis came to India from Iran. There are two stories of their coming here and are contradictory to each other. 

1/ Some people say they came at the time of Shujauddin in 16th Century. Most settled in UP while some shifted to Bengal for trading. Later on they, too, migrated to UP. 

2/ Probably the most accurate one is that they came at the time of Shuja-us-Daula in the middle of 17th Century and settled in UP.
