Explanation

Timur Lang (Tamerlane, 1336-1405 CE) was a Turco-Mongol conqueror who invaded India in 1398. His invasion was exceptionally brutal - he massacred thousands in Delhi and destroyed the city. While Babar also invaded India, Timur's invasion was particularly noted for its cruelty and scale of destruction.
