Causes For The Decline Of Delhi Sultanate
 There was no definite law of succession, after the death of each
sultan ,the situation gave rise to many civil wars.
 The nobles became the king makers & controlled the weak sultans.
 Jagir system gave rise to disintegration that weakened the kingdom
 The invasion of Timur & Babur was the main cause for the
downfall of the Delhi sultanate.
