Following Ibrahim Lodi's defeat to Rana Sanga at the Battle of Khatoli, he made preparations to take action against Rana Sanga. The Mewar armies were stretched thin due to conflicts with the Sultans of Malwa and Gujarat. In the battle, which was fought near Dholpur, the Mewar army made a successful charge, and defeated the opposing armies. Rana Sanga followed this victory by conquering most of present-day Rajasthan.
