Explanation by: Admin

The Battle of Chausa was fought on 26 June 1539 between Mughal Emperor Humayun and Sher Shah Suri (then known as Sher Khan).

  • Sher Shah decisively defeated Humayun in this battle.
  • After the defeat, Humayun barely escaped with his life, and Sher Shah assumed the title "Sher Shah" and later established the Sur Empire in North India.

❌ Why other options are incorrect:

  • (A) Shivaji: He was born in 1630, much later than this battle.
  • (B) Maharana Pratap: He was a 16th-century Rajput king, but he fought against the Mughals (Akbar), not Humayun.
  • (D) none of these: Incorrect, as Sher Shah was the one who defeated Humayun.

✅ Correct Answer: (C) Sher Shah
