The dynasty was of Afghan origin. The first Lodī ruler was Bahlul Lodi(reigned 1451–89), the most powerful of the Punjab chiefs, who replaced the last king of the Sayyid dynasty in 1451.
The Mughal emperor Babur defeated and killed Ibrahim Lodi in the Battle of Panipat. The death of Ibrahim Lodi brought the 320-year-long Delhi Sultanate to an end, and the Mughal Empire took its place.
