<Li> 1st Turkomen Hazaras </Li> <Li> 2nd Turkomen Hazaras </Li> <P> The Battle of Khanwa was fought near the village of Khanwa, in Bharatpur District of Rajasthan, on March 17, 1527 . It was fought between the invading forces of the first Mughal Emperor Babur and the Rajput forces led by Rana Sanga of Mewar, after the Battle of Panipat . The victory in the battle consolidated the new Mughal dynasty in India . </P> <P> Rajput ruler Rana Sanga had sent an ambassador to Babur at Kabul, offering to join in Babur's attack on Sultan Ibrahim Lodi of Delhi . Sanga had offered to attack Agra while Babur would be attacking Delhi . However, while Babur did attack Lodi and took over Delhi and Agra, Sanga made no move, apparently having changed his mind . Babur had resented this backsliding; in his autobiography, Babur accuses Rana Sanga of breach of agreement . Historian Satish Chandra speculates that Sanga may have imagined a long, drawn - struggle taking place between Babur and Lodi, following which he would be able to take control of the regions he coveted . Alternatively, writes Chandra, Sanga may have thought that in the event of a Mughal victory, Babur would withdraw from Delhi and Agra, like Timur, once he had seized the treasures of these cities . Once he realized that Babur intended to stay on in India, Sanga proceeded to build a grand coalition that would either force Babur out of India or confine him to Afghanistan . In early 1527 Babur started receiving reports of Sanga's advance towards Agra . It was treachery of a section of Sanga's army that resulted in his defeat . </P>
