Person
Alam Khan Lodi
Alam Khan Lodi was a son of Bahlul Lodi and uncle of Ibrahim Lodi, the last sultan of Delhi. Claiming the throne for himself, he joined Daulat Khan Lodi, governor of the Punjab, in inviting Babur to intervene against Ibrahim in the 1520s. Babur's victory at Panipat in 1526 ended the Lodi dynasty rather than placing Alam Khan on the throne.
