The Battle of Dholpur was fought between the Kingdom of Mewar under Rana Sanga and the Lodi dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate under Ibrahim Lodi resulting in a Mewar victory.
Following Ibrahim Lodi's defeat to Rana Sanga at the Battle of Khatoli, he made preparations to take action against Rana Sanga. The Mewar armies were stretched thin due to conflicts with the Sultans of Malwa and Gujarat. In the battle, which was fought near Dholpur, the Mewar army made a successful charge, and defeated the opposing armies. Rana Sanga followed this victory by conquering most of present-day Rajasthan.
Battle
When Ibrahim Lodi's army reached Rana Sanga's territory, the Maharana advanced with his Rajputs. As the two armies came in sight of each other near Dholpur,[1] Mian Makhan made preparations for battle. Said Khan Furat and Haji Khan were placed on the right, Daulat Khan commanded the centre, Allahdad Khan and Yusuf Khan were placed on the left. The army of Ibrahim Lodi was fully prepared to give the Maharana a warm reception.
The Rajputs started the battle with a cavalry charge which was personally led by Rana Sanga. His cavalry with their accustomed valour, advanced and fell on the army of Ibrahim Lodi, and in a short time put the enemy to flight. "Many brave and worthy men were made martyrs and the others were scattered."[2] The Rajputs pushed the army of Ibrahim Lodi up to Bayana.[3]
Hussain Khan taunted his fellow nobles from Delhi: "It is a hundred pities that 30,000 horsemen should have been defeated by so few Hindus."[4]
Aftermath
By this victory, each part of Malwa which had been usurped by Muhammad Shah (Sahib Khan), younger brother of Sultan Mahmud Khilji II of Mandu during his rebellion against his brother, and had subsequently been taken possession of by Sultan Sikander Lodi, father of Sultan Ibrahim Lodi, now fell into the hands of the Maharana of Mewar, Rana Sanga. Chanderi was one of the many places which fell into the hands of the Maharana,[5] who then bestowed it on Medini Rai as a gift.[6]
