Emperor Jahangir’s letter is a reliable source of evidence for understanding how he felt about English merchants because he wrote the letter about that same topic and expressed his views about it in the letter.This document is a reliable source of evidence to understand Emperor Jahangir’s perspective on English merchants in India. This is because it is a primary source document written by Jahangir himself on this same topic.
