Years: 1301 - 1301

The Khilji Dynasty, an Indo-Afghan ruling dynasty that is made-up of mamluks (slaves), is the second Muslim dynasty to rule the Delhi Sultanate of India, ruling from 1290 over a large area in Indian subcontinent.

Having subjugated Gujarat, Sultan Alauddin Khilji has turned his attentions to Malwa, while also busy repelling the intermittent Mongol invasions that had begun in 1299.

A series of hard-fought, bloody sieges against strongly fortified centers begins with the capture of Ranthambore Fort in 1301.
