On @aajtak,
@asadowaisi asked Who Invited Babur to India.

As he was not answered in the debate, Let me tell Who invited Babur to India through the ref. of Baburnama.

'Daulat Khan & Alam Khan Lodhi' INVITED Babur to India against his own clansman.

@SudhanshuTrived
Let's see views of other historians about who invited Babur to India.
First we will talk about the view of Historian Jadunath Sarkar about the issue.

Acc to J. Sarkar, Daulat Khan the servant of Ibrahim Lodhi in Punjab in order to gain independence invited Babur to India.
But, leftist Historians conclude a probability which like of Owaisi exploit, of Rana Sanga inviting Babur based on a passing reference in Baburnama.
We'll go to that, but 1st, let's see whether Babur always spoke Truth or not?
It's proven that Babur lied many times in his memoir.
Interestingly, Baburnama they quote is not original.

As a fact of matter, we don't hv any copy of Original Baburnama written by Babur in Chagatai Language.
It was later rewritten into Persian, 6 DECADES after his death. Baburnama we see today is a copy of that rewritten version.
First we will see how Babur mentions Rana Sanga in his memoir:

Rana Sanga, who became great by strength of his sword & valour, who defeated Sultan of Gujarat and reduced his dynasty into feebles.
Rana Sanga has been quoted as the strongest Hindu King in the North by Babur.
Now let's compare info given about envoy of Daulat Khan wrt Rana Sanga.
Babur & Ahmad Yalgar(court historian), both make a 3-page refr. of envoy sent by Daulat khan which included details like half-ripped Mangoes sent as gift, bt only a 4-line ref about strongest King in North?
We saw how Babur viewed Rana as the greatest King in North who reduced Gujarat Sultante into ashes, but evn then he made a 4-line passing reference of his proposal? that too after his arrival in India, unlike of Daulat Khan a petty servant of Delhi at start of his campaign?
NO CONTEMPORARY MUSL!M historian mentions Sanga's proposal.
Leftist oftn conclude that Rana Sanga invited Babur in order to defeat Ibrahim Lodhi & rule Agra.
But did Rana Sanga needed outside help to defeat Ibrahim, when he already defeated him twice?
Let's see battle of Khatoli:
Let's see Battle of Dholpur:

In Battle of Dholpur 15,000 Rajputs of Rana Sanga defeated 40,000 mus!ms under Ibrahim Khan.
Hussain Khan even taunted his nobles that a handful Hindus defeated 40,000 mus!ms.

Now, Ask yourself, Did Rana Sanga needed outside force to defeat Ibrahim?
For better judgment, let's check another Battle, of Gagron.
In Gagron, Rana defeated combined armies of Sultanat of Gujarat & Malwa, even kept Mahmud Khilji as prisoner.
Removed Jaziya from Hindus in Malwa.
He defeated them thrice.
Now, Rana needed outside help to defeat Ibrahim?
So, was there no communication at all between Rana Sanga & Babur?

There's very important evidence that is often ignored by leftists & anyone who has minutely read Mewar history would know that the whole issue is mentioned in the daily diary of Mewar Darbar, what does it say?
It tells us that it was actually BABUR WHO SENT AN ENVOY to Rana Sanga in order TO ASK for Rana Sanga's HELP and not otherwise.

@yusufpore why did you conceal this fact while quoting GN Sharma?
You thought you will get away by selectively quoting GN Sharma?
Still, I'll quote view of Gopinath Sharma on why Babur's mention of Sanga is FARCE.
He Lists:
>Babur was on an expedition with a greater enemy not Rana.
>Sanga had no need to establish alliance.
>Babur was a proven lier.
> He gave no detail of alliance unlike other agreements.
But even then, after denying all these possibilities, defying logic and common sense, let us assume that Babur was invited by Rana Sanga, as Babur didn't know his way to India.

But is it logical?

NO, because BATTLE OF PANIPAT WAS NOT 1st, BUT 5th RAID OF BABUR IN INDIA.
Why WOULD A REGULAR RAIDER NEED INVITATION TO RAID AGAIN?
Left project as if Babur needed a GPS tracker to raid India, they conveniently ignore that Babur himself has written how he was free from domestic commotions after 3rd raid & can easily raid India aftr Khan's invitation.
So, it's clear that the claim that Rana invited Babur doesn't stand on any logical basis, but is only a botched up narrative often used by Leftists & Politicians.

But why?
To shift the blame of all the plunder, loot and killings on Indians, rather than Babur himself.
