@TLK

I have a hard copy of Mughal Darbar by Doctor Mubarak Ali. It’s in Urdu, and a book adaptation of his PhD thesis on Mughals. Quite an informative read.

Hareem, I can mail you that book. Let me know.

That would be great help…let me pm you my email. (aww you’re so kind)

@the_kaur

there are three battles of Panipat

One during Babar’s invasion

Second during Akbar ascencion

Third between Durranis and Marathas

So please check which one is needed in hareem’s case, first two are of Mughals

I was talking about the one during Babur’s time…it’s considered very important coz it’s considered the cause of Mughal rule in India.

Actually Babar introduced Mughals in India, main reason of establishment of Mughal empire goes to Akbar alone.

Because mughal princesses were banned from marriage, so lot of scandalous stories and rumours about them.

Shivaji and aurangzeb

Mujadad Alf sani aka Shiekh ahmad sirhindi, his influence on mughals

Baro buyains (the 12 lords of bengal) vs Mughals

Roshniya movement against mughals

Re: Urdu literature on Mughals

Hemu, the napoleon of India, who had won 22 battles one after another, was wiining the second battle of panipat but was struck in the eye througgh an arrow out of nowhere and with his sudden death, mughals won the lost war. If mughals had lost this battle, they had leave hindostan again, perhaps forever.

Rana Sanga has more battles to his name than Hemu

Napolean of India is Chandragupta Vikaramaditya of Gupta dynasty.

Its not me who is calling him Napoleon of India, its indian historian.Hemu-Napoleon of Medieval India - Bhardwaj - Google Books

For us Afghans, he was a general of Adil Shah suri. The success ratio of hemu in battles is higher than rana sanga.
