💡 Solution & Explanation

The Battle of Khanwa was fought in March 1527 near Fatehpur Sikri between the invading forces of Zahir-ud-din Muhammad Babur and the Rajput confederacy led by Rana Sanga of Mewar. This conflict was decisive in consolidating Mughal rule over northern India following Babur's victory at Panipat the previous year.
