Assertion (A): Battle of Khanua was certainly more decisive and significant than the First Battle of Panipat.

Reason (R): Rana Sanga, the Rajput hero, was certainly a more formidable adversary than Ibrahim Lodi. 

Codes:

(a) Both A and R are individually true but R is the correct explanation of A

(b) Both A and R are individually true but R is not a correct explanation of A

(c) A is true but R is false

(d) A is false but R is true

Answer 1

(a) Both A and R are individually true but R is the correct explanation of A

Battle of Khanua (1527, Rana Sanga was defeated by Babar); First Battle of Panipat (1526, Ibrahim Lodhi was defeated by Babur). Rana Sangha once defeated Ibrahim Lodhi so R explains A.
