Question

Give three reasons behind the defeat of Ibraham Lodi in the first battle of panipat​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Following are usually ascribed the main causes of the defeat of Ibrahim in spite of his having about 10 times force than Babur. (1) Use of artillery by Babur. (2) Babur's well-disciplined army. (3) War tactics of Babur

Answer 2

there were many reasons , first off all ibrahim's faulty strategies , he used elephants at the battle field which contributed to nothing but slowing down his army before the swift cavalry based army of ZAHIRUDDIN MUHAMMAD BABUR . second is, babur had the advantage of advanced artillery i.e.  guns and cannons, over lodi's army.he managed to get guns from iran. third was that babur's fierce "tulughma" tactics of warfare whisg gave him the edge and this is how the numerically superior forces of the lodi ( nearly 1000000, 100 elephants) was defeated by  the numerically inferior troops of babur. Also , it's to be noticed that the lodi sultan lacked mass support, basically of the rajputs under rana sanga who were themselves obsessed with the desire of becoming the rulers of delhi, taking advantage of the situation of political turmoil

another point to be mentioned is that babur had paved his way clear to delhi not at a single campaign but at 4 seperate campaigns by capturing bhira,lahore,dipalpur, one after another .

babur also had the experiece of fighting wars through his frequent battles with the uzbegi warlords of his homeland, Farghana
