c15.s4.30

Bābur is in a position of vantage in condemning Daulat Khan Lodī's acts of "treachery", for he has convincingly put forward his point of view in his Memoirs. Daulat Khan has left no record of what he must have felt at the loss of Lahore. If he had, he must have declared Bābur's occupation of Lahore as an extremely treacherous act. In view of this, Bābur's repeated assertion of the treacherous conduct of Daulat Khan and other Afghan noblemen (and later on of Rana Sāngā) should be taken only with a pinch of salt.
