Explanation:
Answer:
Babur
Explanation:
Babur had no planned policy towards the Rajputs. He had to fight against Rana Sanga of Mewar and Medini Rai of Chanderi because this was necessary for the establishment and safety of his empire in India. On both the occasions, he declared Jihad, assumed the title of ghazi after his success and raised minarets of the heads of the Rajputs. But he married Humayun with one Rajput princess and employed Rajputs in the army. Thus, he neither tried to befriend Rajputs nor regarded them as his permanent enemies.
