Who among the following was the founder of the Sayyid Dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate in 1414 CE?

💡 Solution & Explanation

Khizr Khan established the Sayyid Dynasty in fourteen fourteen following the chaotic aftermath of Timur's devastating invasion of Delhi and the collapse of the Tughlaq dynasty. Later rulers belonging to this same lineage included Mubarak Shah and Muhammad Shah, but none exercised the same foundational role. The Sayyid dynasty ruled the Delhi Sultanate until the rise of the Lodi dynasty under Bahlul Lodi.
