Lodhi Dynasty of Multan
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
It was founded by Hamid Khan Lodhi after the end of Arab power in Multan in 961 A.D.[1] In 1010 A.D. Sultan Mahmud Ghaznavi defeated Daud grandson of Hamid Lodhi. Sheikh, son of Daud, in 1040 A.D. rose against Sultan Mahmud.[2] In 1040 A.D Mahmud Ghaznavi sent an army under the command of Ahmad Hajib to Multan. When the army reached Multan, the Sheikh fled and took asylum in Mansura, capital of Sind and the Ghaznavid army took control of Multan ending the 80 years long Afghan rule over Multan.[3]
