Mirza Ghazi Beg Tarkhan (Persian: میرزا غازى بیگ ترخان, r. 1599–1612 CE) of the Tarkhan dynasty in Sindh ruled from the capital city of Thatta. He was the most powerful Mughal governor who administered Sindh, during whose rule the region had become fiercely loyal to the Mughals. In Sindh a network of small and large forts manned by cavalry and musketeers further extended Mughal power during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. He was a descendant of the powerful Mirza clan which had arrived in the region with the Mughal emperor Babur who had conquered South Asia in 1526. Mirza Ghazi Beg spoke nearly two languages which included Persian (the official and native language of the Mughals), and some Turkic.
