⭕When Babur defeated Ibrahim Lodhi and assumed the kingship of India, Sher Shah Suri joined Babur and impressed him with his intelligence. Babur appointed him as the governor of Bihar. After the death of Babur when the Mughal government became unstable, Sher Shah took advantage of the situation and became independent.
⭕He was an ambitious man and wanted to avenge the Afghan defeat by the Mughals. Most of the Afghan tribal leaders had settled in Bihar and Bengal after the defeat in the Battle of Panipat (1526), therefore, Sher Shah made them regain their lost power and united them under his leadership.
⭕In 1539, he defeated Humayun in the Battle of Chaunsa. Humayun lost hope and after losing another battle with Sher Shah Suri, he left India. Sher Shah then easily occupied Delhi and Agra and declared himself king. After that he started to conquer the neighbouring states but Sher Shah died in an explosion while besieging Kalinjar in 1545.
