Lodi Dynasty

The Lodi Dynasty was a ruling family in India that governed from 1451 to 1526, marking the last dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate. Founded by Alauddin Lodi, the dynasty is known for its efforts to consolidate power, promote agriculture, and build infrastructure. It played a crucial role in shaping the region's politics and culture during its time. The dynasty ended when Ibrahim Lodi, its last ruler, was defeated by Babur in the First Battle of Panipat, leading to the establishment of the Mughal Empire. The Lodi period is notable for its architectural contributions and administrative reforms.
