North-western frontier remained a cause of concern for Delhi Sultans due to recurrent incursions of Mongols. Do you agree?

The period from AD 1206–1526 is known as the Sultanate period in the history of India. During this period of about 320 years, five ruling  dynasties ruled successively namely, the Slave dynasty  the Khilji dynasty , the Tughlaq dynasty , the Sayyid dynasty  and the Lodhi dynasty .  The average ruling period of each dynasty was about seventy years. This period is very short in comparison with the reigning period of the  Mughals of 250 years (including fifteen years of the Sur dynasty of Afghan rule).It is attributed to several causes which are as follows:
 

(i) Autocracy of the Sultans

The Sultans of the Delhi Sultanate were autocratic and despotic. They had in them the powers of the Executive, Legislative and Judiciary  combined. There was no control of any cabinet or representative assembly over them. Many Sultans did not even care about the religious  leaders or the Ulemas. They fixed their aim to rule continuously either on the basis of their military power or the rigid penal code. Barring a few  Sultans like Alauddin Khilji, a majority of Sultans were indifferent to the public welfare activities.

(ii) Invasions of Mongols

From the time of Ilutmish to the time of Muhammad Tughlaq, there were continuoussevere Mongol invasions. Even though powerful Sultans like  Balban and Alauddin coldly arrested these terrible invasions, the country had to suffer heavy losses in material and non-material things. The  Sultans could not pay any attention towardsadministration so that the administration of the Sultanate could not be consolidated.
