Hey frnd i m here to answer yr question
Explanation:
Ibrahim was an ethnic Pashtun. He attained the throne upon the death of his father, Sikandar, but was not blessed with the same ruling capability. He faced a number of rebellions. Ibrahim Lodi also displeased the nobility when he replaced old and senior commanders with younger ones who were loyal to him. His Afghan nobility eventually invited Babur to invade India.[citation needed]
In 1526, the Mughal forces of Babur, the king of Kabulistan (Kabul, present Afghanistan), defeated Ibrahim's much larger army in the Battle of Panipat. Ibrahim Lodi was helped by Maharaja Lakshminath Singh Deva Jha (Shahdeo) of Mithila (Tirhut). Ibrahim Khan was killed with Lakshminat Jha during the battle. It is estimated that Babur's forces numbered around 12,000–15,000 men and had between 20 and 24 pieces of field artillery. Ibrahim Lodi had around 1,00,000–1,20,000 men along with at least 300 war elephants.
After the end of Lodi dynasty, the era of Mughal rule commenced.[3]
