Muhammad Ghori defeated Prithviraj Chauhan in the Second Battle of Tarain (1192) and laid the foundations of Muslim rule in India. After establishing his empire Ghori returned to Afghanistan, leaving Delhi in the hands of his trusted slave general, Qutub-ud-din Aibak. Upon the death of Ghori in 1206, Qutub-ud-din proclaimed himself as the Sultan of Delhi and established the Slave Dynasty in India (1206-1290). This marked the beginning of Delhi Sultanate.
