Moreover, the reviewer, here "The Herald" who moved this from draft space to article space himself says that there was no need to move it back to draft space (you could see the talk page of this article for his comment). I also had a discussion with the other user who had a problem with this draft on this draft's talk page. I addressed his concerns and then resubmitted it. Mohammad Umar Ali 08:45, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

The Mewar-Delhi Sultanate conflicts were a series of battles that happened from the mid 13th to early 16th century. With the defeat of Chauhan ruler Prithviraj Chauhan in the Second Battle of Tarain in 1192 CE, Delhi Sultanate, a successor to Ghurid dynasty, was established in the northern part of India. After conquering much of Indo-Gangetic Plain the Sultans of Delhi now had turned their attention towards North-Western India. They subdued Jalore, Ajmer and Ranthambore and followed up by invading Mewar.[3][4]
The Rawals under Rawal Tej Singh and Samar Singh were initially able to repulse these invasions.[5] However, they faced a major setback when their capital Chittorgarh was captured by Sultan Alauddin Khalji in 1303.[6]
Hammir Singh, who was one of the descendants of the junior branch of the Guhila dynasty, recovered whole of Mewar including Chittorgarh and further defeated the invading army of the Delhi Sulatante in Singoli. This victory made whole of Rajputana practically independent of the Sultanate's rule.[7] Maharana Hammir's successors Maharana Kshetra and Maharana Lakha were able to gain territories of Badnore and Bakrole from Delhi Sultanate[8]. Mewar's golden age started under the reign of Maharana Kumbha and reached its zenith under Maharana Sanga.[9] [10] Rana Sanga, with his superior tactics, repeatedly humbled Ibrahim Lodi, the Sultan of Delhi, prevailing over him decisively at Khatoli, Dholpur and Ranthambhore. These victories not only secured Mewar’s triumph but also expanded its boundaries up to Bayana.[11][12][13] At the height of his power, Rana Sanga held control over extensive regions encompassing much of present day Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Madhya Pradesh with his capital at Chittor.[14] These events not only made Mewar one of the greatest powers in Northern India in the early 16th century but also contributed to the downfall and weakening of the Delhi Sultanate.[15] The Sultanate ultimately collapsed after its last Sultan Ibrahim was defeated by Timurid ruler Babur with the help of Rana Sanga and other rebellious Afghani chiefs.[16]
