Solution
Akbar’s position was unstable and insecure when he ascended the throne of Delhi because his empire was surrounded by enemies on all sides. Adil Shah who was the nephew of Sher Shah was determined to capture Delhi and re-establish the Afghan rule. Even the Rajputs were waiting for a suitable opportunity to throw the Mughals out of India.
