False,

Sayyid dynasty

The Tughlaq dynasty came to an end in 1414. The next dynasty to succeed to the throne of Delhi was the Sayyid dynasty which was founded by Khizr Khan. Khizr Khan had been earlier appointed as governor of Lahore by Timur the Turko- Mongol invader who had overrun India during the last days of the Tughlaq dynasty. Khizr Khan overthrew Daulat Khan Lodhi who had been placed on the throne of Delhi by the nobles after the death of the last Tughlaq ruler. Though Khizr Khan was an independent ruler he preferred to continue as the viceroy of Timur’s successor Shah Rukh. He acknowledged his over lordship by paying him tribute. The Mongol ruler’s name was recited in the khutba (public prayers) along with that of Khizr Khan. This practice was a departure from the normal. However the coins bore the name of the old Tughlaq Sultan. No coins bearing the name of Khizr Khan have been found.
