It was Emperor Jahangir, also known as Prince Salim, who died after falling down the stairs of a library. Emperor Jahangir ruled the Mughal Empire from 1605 to 1627 and was known for his love of learning and books. He was reportedly reading a book in the library of his palace when he fell down the stairs and suffered fatal injuries. Emperor Jahangir’s death was a great loss to the literary and intellectual life of the Mughal Empire, as he was a patron of learning and supported the production of books and other works of literature.
