== Military campaigns ==<br />
Hasan Khan Mewati played a significant role in two crucial battles: the [[First Battle of Panipat|Battle of Panipat]] and the [[Battle of Khanwa]].<br />
<br />
=== First battle of Panipat ===<br />
{{Main article|First Battle of Panipat}}<br />
<br />
Hasan Khan Mewati supported [[Ibrahim Khan Lodi|Ibrahim Lodi]], the [[Sultan of Delhi]], in the [[First Battle of Panipat]], which took place in 1526. This battle was a pivotal conflict between the [[Mughal Empire]], led by [[Babur]], and the [[Delhi Sultanate|Sultanate of Delhi]], led by [[Ibrahim Khan Lodi|Ibrahim Lodi]]. In this battle, Babur emerged victorious, and Lodi lost his life. During the conflict, Babur took Hasan Khan Mewati's son as a hostage. Following the Battle of Panipat, Hasan Khan Mewati aligned himself with [[Rana Sanga]] to continue the fight against Babur and the Mughal Empire.<br />
<br />
=== Battle of Khanwa ===<br />
{{Main article|Battle of Khanwa}}<br />
<br />
The Battle of Khanwa occurred on March 15, 1527, between [[Rana Sanga]] of [[Mewar]] and Babur. At this time, Hasan Khan Mewati's patriotism and bravery had earned him a reputation as a fierce warrior. Hasan Khan Mewati, once again, supported Rana Sanga in this battle. When Rana Sanga was struck by an arrow and fell from his elephant, the Mewati king took charge of the commander's flag and led the attack against Babur's forces. Hasan Khan Mewati displayed tremendous valor as he, along with his 12 thousand horse soldiers, fiercely confronted Babur's army. They were initially successful and seemed to be overpowering the Mughal forces. During the battle, Mewati was struck by a cannonball that hit his chest. This injury proved fatal, and Mewati lost his life in the midst of the battle. <ref>{{Cite web |date=2018-12-18 |title=अलवर का वीर देशभक्त सपूत, जिससे बाबर भी घबराता था, बाबर के खिलाफ जमकर किया था युद्ध {{!}} Hasan Khan Mewati Alwar Story In Hindi |url=https://www.patrika.com/alwar-news/hasan-khan-mewati-alwar-story-in-hindi-3854583/ |access-date=2023-11-07 |website=Patrika News |language=hi-IN}}</ref><br />
