Tarikh is a daily program in which we present you with incidents and stories of noteworthy persons of History in Hindi. In this edition Tarikh Nikhil talks about the history of Taimur lang. He is from Samarkand and also known as Timur lang or Tamerlane. In 1398, Timur invaded northern India, attacking the Delhi Sultanate ruled by Sultan NasirudDin Mahmud Shah Tughluq of the Tughlaq dynasty. After crossing the Indus River on 30 September 1398. The battle took place on 17 December 1398. Before the battle, Timur slaughtered some 100,000 slaves who had been captured previously in the Indian campaign. This was done out of fear that they might revolt.
Sultan NasirudDin Mahmud Shah Tughluq and the army of Mallu Iqbal had war elephants armored with chain mail and poison on their tusks. As his Tatar forces were afraid of the elephants, Timur ordered his men to dig a trench in front of their positions. Timur then loaded his camels with as much wood and hay as they could carry. When the war elephants charged, Timur set the hay on fire and prodded the camels with iron sticks, causing them to charge at the elephants, howling in pain. Timur had understood that elephants were easily panicked. Faced with the strange spectacle of camels flying straight at them with flames leaping from their backs, the elephants turned around and stampeded back toward their own lines. Timur capitalized on the subsequent disruption in the forces of NasirudDin Mahmud Shah Tughluq, securing an easy victory. NasirudDin Mahmud Shah Tughluq fled with remnants of his forces.
The capture of the Delhi Sultanate was one of Timur's largest and most devastating victories as at that time, Delhi was one of the richest cities in the world. The city of Delhi was sacked and reduced to ruins, with the population enslaved. After the fall of the city, uprisings by its citizens against the TurkicMongols began to occur, causing a retaliatory bloody massacre within the city walls.
