Important Battles question: The First Battle of Panipat (1526) - how did Babur use his artillery position? What was the tactic called?

The verified answer to “Important Battles question: The First Battle of Panipat (1526) - how did Babur use his artillery position? What was the tactic called?” is Tulugma (flanking) and Araba (wagon fortress) combination, option B. The source-backed, question-specific record explains: Babur used the Ottoman-style Tulugma tactic with flanking cavalry and a central Araba (wagon fortress) where cannons were chained together. This combination of mobile cavalry flanks and central artillery was decisive against Ibrahim Lodi's traditional army. This evidence establishes the historical relationship required in this Important Battles item. A correct solution must preserve the exact battle, date, participants, commander, location, outcome or significance requested by the stem. Similar periods, genres or national traditions do not make two battle facts interchangeable. Option B gives Tulugma (flanking) and Araba (wagon fortress) combination and satisfies every condition stated in the question. The remaining choices—Line formation, Square formation and V formation—do not satisfy the complete requirement. Depending on the stem, a distractor may name a real commander but attach the wrong title, use a related event involving another power, reverse a correct association, or present a correct statement when the question specifically asks for the incorrect match. The reliable checking method is to identify the named battle first, recall or verify its verified participant or outcome, and then read qualifiers such as “both works,” “original language,” “first published,” “correctly matched” or “incorrectly matched.” These qualifiers determine what counts as the answer. Replaying that method for this Important Battles question confirms Tulugma (flanking) and Araba (wagon fortress) combination without relying on option position. This approach builds accurate historical knowledge and careful option elimination for SSC, Railway, Banking, Defence, State and other competitive examinations.
