Death of Sher Shah Suri
Death of Sher Shah Suri
The reign of Sher Shah was just 5 years from 1540-45 though, one of the most impressive reigns.
In May 1545, when he was campaigning against the Chandel Rajputs in Bundelkhand (Kalinjer), a gunpowder explosion fatally wounded him and thus this Afghan Tiger lost his life in Bundelkhand, laying wounded in his tent and worrying about the future of his wise schemes.
