Solution
Muhammad Ghori’s conquest of North India is considered to be a turning point in Indian History because, within ten years of the Second Battle of Tarain, the powerful Rajputs kingdoms collapsed and India came into the hands of those who ruled over it for the next 300 years, that is the Sultans of Delhi.
