Question

Whom did Babur defeat at the battlefield of Panipat? What was its consequence?

Answer 1

In April 1526 Babur defeated Sultan Ibrahim Lodi at the battlefield of Panipat. His victory was a success of “consummate leadership” and “superior weapons” that he had acquired from Turkey. Babur was the king of India. The most formidable chieftain against whom Babur had yet to fight was Rana Sanga of Mewar, who had organised a huge confederacy of Rajputs against the Mughal invader. The victory of Khanua, a village near Agra, gave Babur complete control over Central India.
