In 1520 A.D. Rana Sanga led a coalition of Rajput armies to invade Gujarat. He reinstated Raimal Rathore as the Rao of Idar and defeated the Gujarat forces under the command of Nizam Khan. Rana Sanga drove the army of Muzaffar II deep into Gujarat and chased them up to Ahmedabad.[1] The Sultan of Gujarat was forced to flee to Muhammadabad.[2][3] After a series of successful military campaigns Sanga successfully captured Northern Gujarat.[4]
