Range in both directions (3)
I believe the answer is:
aga
'range' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for aga that I've seen before include "--- Khan, title of the head of the Ismaili Muslims" , "Muslim title and cooking stove" , "Palindromic Muslim title, as for Khan" , "military leader" , "Chief officer" .)
