The ruler of Delhi, Babar is walking on the path of unrest. He is not able to pay attention to anything. He is working hard all day, but he is not sleeping better than night. It is very hot, it's a mosquito repellent. Though Hindustan has many dreams, he does not like the weather in Hindustan. He is the coldest people in Central Asia, this weather in Hindustan seems absolutely new and annoying to him.
However, the reason for breaking the peace of the emperor Babar is not the little mosquito and the warm weather of Hindustan. He is concerned about the future of his new Mughal empire. He stayed in Hindustan for almost a year. But in the meantime there was nothing much to do except Delhi and Agra. He has been receiving regular intelligence reports from different parts of Hindustan. Reports are not too easy.
Even though the Afghan Lodi dynasty fell in the first battle of Panipath, the Afghans developed a strong resistance against the Mughal empire in the eastern part of Hindustan. Hassan Khan Khan Mewati, Baina's Nizam Khan, Sasaval Qasim Sasawali and Tatar Khan of Gwalior were sitting in their own fort and preparing for war against Babar. Other Afghans of Hindustan have also denied Babar. They placed the son of Bihar Khan on the throne with the title of Sultan Mahmud. Sultan Mahmud is gradually becoming stronger with the help of several powerful Afghans including Nisar Khan Lohani, Maruf Farmulkak However, Sultan Mahmud has not yet become a serious threat to Babar. But if you keep going in this way, then there will be no doubt that Sultan Mahmud will become Babur's fierce opponent soon.
On the other hand, a loyal slave of Ibrahim Lodi named Marangu is threatening Babur by strengthening his position in Mahaban, just 40 miles away from Agra. But hopefully, some powerful Amir, like Nissar Khan Lohani and Maruf Farmulk, have again accepted Babar's loyalty. Regular small operations are being run against the rebel Amir and the Sardars. Meanwhile, some rebel leaders, including Firoz Khan, Sheikh Karrani, Tatar Khan, surrendered to Babar. All of the surrendered leaders get jagirs according to their own qualifications.
Babur knows, this amount of surrender will increase even if you give some time. But simultaneous military operations continue. An army led by Babur Humayun sent towards Sambhav. Humayun used to capture Qasim Sankavali and realized the rule of Sambhal. Babar sent another army towards Ba'ana. They are blocking the airway.

A new problem has arisen in Babur's own army. The steelmaker Mughal army is not able to adapt itself to Babur in the harsh climate of Hindustan. Babar's fighters used to fight in cold snow-covered areas. They are very unhappy in the heat of hot and mosquito breeding in Hindustan. Moreover, like the Babur, the Hindustan Mughal army did not get much good. Most of the land here is the kind of desert desert. They can not be used in Hindustan's food. And so they are more interested in Hindustan faster than staying in Hindustan for a long time. Babar's generals are not daring to tell Babar about their desire to leave Hindustan. But Babar understood exactly what he understood by seeing them. Babur himself knew that his Hindustan campaign would not be easy. There have been several problems surrounding him. Of course, these problems must be tackled. Otherwise, the way Hindustan has caught his hands easily, it will easily get out of his hands easily.
Babar is not too worried about such a problem. The solution to these problems is not very easy but it is not very difficult. But Raja Hassan Khan of Mawat, and Hindu Rampant Raja Rana Sangham Singh, of Mibar, took away Babur's peace. Though these rajputs of Mewat are Muslim, they are more sympathetic to the Hindus than Muslims. They even celebrated Hindu religious rituals. But King Hassan Khan had considerable influence over other Hindustan Muslims. Rajaput Raja Raja Rana Sangram Singh was seen in suspicion from the beginning of Babar. Of course, there were also proper reasons.

Among the people invited to attack Babar in Hindustan from the interior of the Hindustan territories, Rajput King Rana Sangham Singh was also among the people. When Babar's attack against Ibrahim Lodhi in Hindustan started, he promised to support Babar from inside. The agreement was like this: When the clashes began between Babur and Ibrahim Lodi, Rana Sangham Singh attacked Agra and put Ibrahim Lodhi on two-faced pressure. After the war, the Rajput Rana Sangram Singh will get the Kalpi, Bayana and Dholpur.
But Rana Sangram Singh thought that Babur would come back to Kabul by invading Hindustan and consolidate some resources like bandits. In the battle with the Lodi empire Babar under the leadership of Ibrahim Lodi, they will lose their strength in battle, or defeat them. And then, on this weak Lodic Empire, he would take control of the territories of Hindustan. But when he realized Babar's attitude, he was back in his promise. Even if he did not tell Babar about his change. Babar receives the news after winning the Panipat war. Babar Rana Singh accused Singh of breaking the contract and refused to give him the promised land.
The rajputas used to rule the southwestern regions of Hindustan mainly. This area, known as the present state of Rajasthan, was once known as Rajputana. Some areas of northern Hindustan were also under their control. However, the royals were not under any single command. Rather, many small Rajput states formed a confederation, under which the leadership was under the control of Rajput King Rana Sangha Singh. The only goal of the runner's life was to bring down the isolated Hindustan territories under the Rajput flag. And the runner had thrown the ashes of the plans of the Mughal Emperor Babur. So after Babur's victory in the battle of Panipath, Rana Sangram Singh was preparing to face Emperor Babur. As the first step Rajputs sit on the throne with Mahmud Lodi, the third son of Sikander Lodi. Let him overcome Babar in front of him now. Later Mahmud Lodi can be arranged! Mahmud Lodi was a visionary political diplomat of the Rajputs installed on the throne.

Meanwhile, the Rajput army, led by Rajput King Rana Sanghar Singh, arrived in Fatehpur by tandava at Baira border. They looted several Mughal cities. Firing lots of mosques, killing mosques in the mosque. Women and children are also treated as abusive. Babar realizes that the war is coming soon. Meanwhile, Babar's son Mirza Humayun was staying in Jainpur. Babur quickly sent Humayun to come to him with a letter. On June 6, 1527, with the responsibility of Jainpur to Humayun Junaid Mirza, he joined the father.
Ibrahim Lodi was easily defeated in the foothills of Panipat. But this is not the case with the war-raj rajputas, Babar realized it very well. Considering the situation, he organized the ministry to make a proper decision. Babur's emiris, considering the various internal problems and the huge size of the Rajput army, are advised to avoid fighting at this time. Babar is advised to stay in Punjab for the sake of adequate security for Agra Fort. Inside this, the Mughal army will increase strength in Agra and Babur will move power in Punjab. In case of situation, the problems of Rajputs can be met. Babar listened carefully to his generals, but did not act according to their opinion. He knows that his war with the kings is inevitable and it is coming soon. Today or tomorrow, in battle with the rajakutera he must get into battlefield. There is no way to avoid this war.
Rajputs are relying on Hindu nationalism against the Mughal army, relying on Hindus' support. Meanwhile, the Mughal army is more enthusiastic about Hindustan. In this situation, Babar's retreat means that the religion of religion and religion will be embraced. Babar thought that the Mughal army would also bring them back to their lost spirit by provoking religious sentiments. Hindustan Qader? The Mughals or the Rajputs? It is important to end this question very soon.

Intelligence reports have come to Babar, Rajpoots have gathered from Fatehpur to come forward from Ranthmora with a large army of about 120,000 soldiers. And most Hindu Rajput kings of Hindustan provide support to Rana Sangram Singh. Raja Singh Lion is getting huge amount of money and support for fighting against Babar from Amber, Marwar, Rampura, Gargaon, Chandri, Bundi, Raisin, Sikri, Ajmer and other Hindu ruled areas.
Besides, Rajput Raja Sihladi 30 thousand, Chandir Medina Rao 10 thousand, Sultan Mahmud Lodi assisted Sangh Singh with 10 thousand soldiers. Raja Pratap Singh, the Rajput king against King Babur, was assisted by around 12,000 soldiers, the Muslim Rajput Raja Hasan Khan, Ma'wati. Being a Muslim, Babur's idea was that it would be possible to separate Hasan Khan Maoat from the Rajput army. He released Nahar Khan, son of Ma'awati, who was captured in the battle of Panipat, on condition of anonymity. Babar's idea was that Hassan Khan would be thankful for the son's release and would suspend the military help of the Rajput army against Babar. But Babur's idea is not true. Hassan Khan stayed with Raja Raja Rana Sangram Singh for the last days of Mayawati's life.
Rajputs knew very well that the Mughal army was badly damaged in the battle of Panipat against Ibrahim Lodi. Moreover, the Mughal forces have lost interest in Hindustan. Therefore, it is the proper time to strike over the Mughals. The rajputas were absolutely sure about their victory. Because, in the past they fought against Ibrahim Lodi and captured some of the land of the Lodi Sultanate. Rajputs were calculating the Lodic army and the Mughal army with the same scales. But sadly, they could not even make up the right mindset about the strength of the Mughal army. This is clearly seen from a comment by Vincent A. Smith from 'The Great Mogul'. He said,
'A few years later (the first battle of Panipat) he (Gujarat's Bahadur Shah - emperor Humayun's opponent) was not willing to fight with the Mughals in a direct fight. He compared the Hindustan army with the Mughal army and realized that the Mughals are as strong as the rock and the Hindustanis are as fragile as glass. And so Hindustani will be defeated in any fight between these two parties. '
In reality, however, it was.

February 11, 1527 Babar proceeded from Agra to Rana Sangha's position with his army. To join the war against the rajputs, some Afghan Amir and Hindustani Mitra joined the Babar. But Babar could not rely on them. Babar was more confident on the capabilities of his own army.
Meanwhile, the Rajput army has reached near the Khunua bay. There was some source of water in the desert area. The Mughal army will fall into disadvantage if these sources are captured by the rajputas. So Babar captured the nearby areas quickly. Within this, the Mughals and the Rajput army were engaged in minor clashes in the possession of the Baina fort near Agra. At that time, the Mughal army could realize that the Rajputs are not as weak and frightened as other Hindustan army. The rajputas fight and keep fighting life. Death is superior to them than being defeated in battle. In particular, the Mughal army saw the expertise of the Rajput army, when about one and a half thousand of Mughal forces near Madpur were completely devastated to the Rajputs. The rajputas suddenly jumped on this small force with about 4/5 thousand soldiers. Most of the warriors of this small unit of the Mughal army were killed, or were captured.
Rajput army size was literally huge. Before that, the Mughal army did not tackle any such big force. In particular, fighters who fight because of embracing death. The Mughal army fell into the final stance because of being only a fifth of the size of Rajput forces. Emperor Babur understands this attitude of his army. In this transition of the Mughal army, he gave an emotional speech aimed at his army. Babar's daughter Gulabdan Begum's Humayunnama mentions Babar's speech in this way,
"He (Samrat Babar) understood that in this situation, unity should be brought back. So all the Amir-Umrah, elite, Khan, Sultan did not leave him, he united them. He gave a speech to all. He said, "You know our fatherland and family town, here's the way of life. If we lose in this war, what will happen to us? If God also protects us from this danger, then where will we go? Where is our birthplace? Where is our city? Among the locals, we are nothing but fugitives or foreigners. So there are two ways ahead for us to get rid of this danger. One, we have to take an oath. And two, only on the basis of Allah, they have to fight. If we win we will be Gazi. And, if we die, we will get respect for martyrdom. These two paths will give us moral strength. We will be able to protect ourselves in that strength. "
On hearing this emperor's heart-shaped speech, the Mughal army threw away fears for the great Rajput army. Whatever the situation, they leave the emperor and say they will not run away with their lives. Babar announced another version of his army's changed attitude. After the war, all the fighters will be given leave to return to their respective homes. Babur knew that due to this announcement, they must fight and fight for life. March 12, 1527 Babar took position just 4 kilometers away from the Rajpoot army position.

Another incident occurred on the night of 15 March 1527. On this night, Kasim Hussein, grandson of Sultan Hussein Mirza, left 10 crores away from Babar's army position and sent a message to Babur. In the message he said that he came to Hindustan from Khorasan with 500 fighter fighters to help Babar in the war against Rana Sangram Singh. Babar was very pleased to receive this letter. But Babar also ran a fine rice in this case. He sent secretly about 1000 Mughal soldiers to Qasim Hussain. And in the letter, Qasim told Hussein that with the 1000 soldiers who had been sent by Babur, he met with the soldiers who had accompanied him to meet Babar's main army in the morning next morning.
The main purpose of Babar's plan was to confuse the enemy forces. Because when this force comes next to Babur's army the next morning, the idea will rise among the enemy forces that more new forces are reaching Babur with the help of new forces!

March 16, 1527, the year. Babar stood in front of warlord Rajputs in the Khuurah area on 60 miles west of Agra, with a small force of five times. In the same way he is calling Allah. If you win this war, any other army of Hindustan will fly like a stone in front of a strong Mughal army like a straw. But if defeated, the future generation will throw him in the dust of history. Only 25,000 soldiers with Babar With this 25,000 soldiers, he will have to change the course of history.
Like the Panwar war, the Babur excavated a trench, as the enemy soldiers could not easily penetrate inside the main army. In the Ottoman style, behind the trench, the chain of cows and horse carts tied with chains. There is a free space available for the convenience of the reserve troops in the wall. And deployed under the wall of the vehicle, archery, match-fixing soldiers, and some cannons.
Babar adopted aggressive tactics in the battle of Panipat, but in the battle of Khanuara, the soldiers took defensive positions for the shortfall compared to the enemies. But the army was like the war of Panipat. He divided the main force into three parts. Middle, right arm and left arm. In the middle, Babur took his position. His cousin, Timur Khan, was helping Babur. Dakshin was responsible for Mirza Humayun, Qasim Khan, Hindu Mirza and Khasru Shah Kokulatash. And the responsibility of the Left Front was on Syed Mehedi Khwaja, Zaman Mirza, Mir Abdul Aziz and Mir Muhammad Ali Khan. Apart from the Mughal fighters in this part of the army, the warriors sent to Babur's allies in Hindustan were also staying. The Mughal Artillery force, led by Ustad Ali Kuli Khan, took position in front of the middle position. Ottoman commander Mustafa Rumi was in charge of the matchlong.
Strong cavalry forces were deployed to protect both the positions of the army and the backside. During the main battle, during the war, the enemy forces were behind the war, and two separate forces were kept on both sides of the main army for the side attack. These forces were well-liked by the 'Tulumaama' technique.
On the other hand, under Rana Sangha Singh, there was an army of about 1.20 lakh large army. There was also a large elephant made by the Rajput army about 1 thousand elephants. Most of the Rajput army commanders were Rajput kings. In this army, 7 kings, 9 people, and 104 of the royal people joined the Rajputs for the struggle of the lion, while the total number of Rahel and Raut was 104.

Due to strong confidence, Rana Sangram Singh started the first attack. He first sent the elephant to the Mughal army. The Elephants started firing in front of Mughal cannons. Battling elephants and busted elephants left the war and started rushing around. As a result, the elephants were buried under the feet, and the Rajput soldiers died.

If the elephants failed, the Rajput assassins attacked the left and middle of the Mughal army. They were resisted with the help of match-lockers and cannons. But on the other side, the special Mughal forces, who had the responsibility to surround the Rajput army from behind the original war, were able to prevent Rajpu horsemen from attacking the Rajpoot position. In no way, Babur decided to change his strategy and try to attack all the units simultaneously. The cannons were carried forward forward. The raid on the Rajput army was fired. The Reserve ordered the infantry to attack the right and left side of the middle of the cavalry.
Rajputs were shocked by this changed behavior of the Mughal army. On the other hand, a large number of Rajput soldiers were killed in the trap of 'Tugalama' strategy. But the rajpoots did not even fall in it. They also attack the middle of the Mughal force simultaneously, but Rajputs can not benefit from anything in front of Babur's intelligent strategy. All-day war continues. In the afternoon, the intensity of the counter attack of Rajput forces decreased, and their defeat was confirmed in the evening. The Mughal soldiers chase them up to 3/4 kilometers so that scattered Rajput soldiers can not unite and attack. Rajaput Rana Sangram Singh was injured just before the defeat. He was removed from the battlefield.
In this battle, Rana Sangha Singh has lost many of his trusted allies. Many important allies of Rana Sangham Singh, including King Rammahal Rathore, Uday Singh, Ratan Singh, died in this war. Muslim King Hassan Khan of Mawaat was also killed in this war.

Rushbrook William remarked about the post-war situation,
"In the past years (before the Khanwar war), the fear that the fear of the superiority of the Rajputs had started in the minds of Muslims (which was the ratio of the army of Mughal v. Rajput army in the Khuurah area 1: 5) that is, the Mughal army could easily defeat the Rajput power Able to do.). The strong Rajput Confederacy broke down in a single huge defeat. Since this war, this Confederacy has become extinct as the single dominating power in Hindustan politics. After this war, the Mughal empire was firmly established in Hindustan. The important issues of Hindustan came under Babar's control. After this war Babur's power center shifted from Kabul to Hindustan. "
Emperor Babur took the title of Ghazi by winning the battle of Khanua. He gave victory in the desert and thanked God for the name of Babur Khanuya Shukri. This dry form took the form of Fatehpur Sikri. Fatehpur Sikri created Babar's grandson to hold Dada's memory.
Babur was ultimately conquered in the battle of Khanuar, the Mughal army snatched victory with an ordeal and made permanent place in history. It is true that the Rajput power was not completely destroyed in the desert area, it is true. But in this war, the backbone of Rajputs was broken forever. And the dreams of their Rajput ruled Hindustan remain the dream. After this war there was no other force Hindustan to threaten the Mughals. However, some people again wanted to show the courage to stand in front of the Mughal army. They will soon realize the warmth of the Royal Mughal army!
