BAHLUL KHAN LODHI
'Bahlul Khan Lodhi' (d.1489) became the first Sultan of the Lodhi Dynasty in India upon the abdication of the last claimant from the previous Sayyid rule. He was born into an Afghan family of traders, and became a renowned warrior and governor of Punjab. He took over the Sultanate on April 19,1451.
Bahlul Khan did much to stop rebellions and uprisings in his territories, and extended his holdings over Gwalior, Jaunpur and upper Uttar Pradesh. In 1486, he appointed his son, Barbuk Shah as viceroy of Jaunpur. In time, this proved to be problematic, as his second son, Sikandar Lodhi was named successor, and a power struggle ensued upon his death in 1489.
