उत्तर
During the thirty-three years of his reign, Mahmud Ghazni carried out seventeen raids on India. He was interested in wealth rather than setting up an empire in the Indian subcontinent.
After 150 years of Mahmud’s invasions, Muhammad of Ghor (hence called Ghori) attacked India. This laid the foundation of the Turko-Afghan rule in India. At the time of his invasion, five Rajput kingdoms were in power. They were the Rathors of Kanauj, Solankis of Gujarat, Chandelas of Bundelkhand, Parmars of Malwa, and Chauhans of Delhi and Ajmer. Muhammad first captured Multan in AD 1175 and then moved on to Gujarat. He defeated the Solankis there. He also captured Punjab, Peshawar, and Sialkot. Hence, Muhammad of Ghori was interested in setting up an empire in the Indian Subcontinent.
