Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Rana Sanga was defeated by Babur at the Battle of Khanwa in 1527.
Reason (R): Babur possessed a superior cavalry force and used artillery along with the Tulughma formation effectively.

Babur’s victory at the Battle of Khanwa was largely due to his superior military technology and tactical innovations. He effectively used field artillery and matchlocks, which were unfamiliar to the Rajput forces. Additionally, the Tulughma formation allowed his cavalry to encircle the enemy from the flanks. These elements combined to overcome the numerical superiority of Rana Sanga’s traditional Rajput and Afghan confederacy.

This office dealt with foreign policy and diplomacy rather than financial management.
Q2796. If a No-Confidence Motion is successfully passed in the Lok Sabha, what is the immediate effect?

This reflects the core principle of parliamentary democracy where the executive is accountable to legislative authority.

Instead, they prioritize access to skilled labor, high-quality infrastructure, and favorable business environments rather than physical resource proximity.
