A History of Rajasthan by Rima Hooja, Page no- 532 "Maldeo’s contemporary chroniclers writing in Persian — like Nizamuddin in his Tabaqat-i-Akbari and Ferishta in his Tarikh-i-Ferishta, referred to him as ‘the most powerful potentate in Hindustan’. At the height of his power, his sway extended almost up to Delhi and Agra, with his eastern frontiers touching Hindaun, Bayana, Fatehpur Sikri and Mewat, while in the other direction his territories extended well into the Sindh part of the Thar desert in the west and north-west, and up to Gujarat in the south-west. Maldeo is undoubtedly responsible for the vast territorial expansion of Marwar that took place during his reign, accompanied by the boost this gave the prestige of the kingdom. His qualities as a warrior and a diplomat were well recognised."

Medieval India (1526–1748) Part two by Satish Chandra, Page no- 79 "Maldeo's kingdom comprised of almost the whole of western and eastern Rajasthan including Sambhal and Narnaul (In Haryana). His armies could be seen as far as the outskirts of Agra. Chandra also says that, Maldeo had the mirage of reviving the 8th century Rashtrakuta empire."
