Name the Lodhi ruler shifted the capital from Delhi to Agra?
Sikandar Lodhi
Sikandar Lodhi is correct.
Sikandar Lodi (reigned 1489–1517), the son of Bahlul Lodi, founded the city of Agra in 1504 and moved his capital there from Delhi to control the Rajput chiefs and the region around Gwalior and Bayana more effectively.
Bahlul Lodi (1451–1489) founded the Lodi dynasty, the last dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate, and ruled from Delhi. Ibrahim Lodi, the last Lodi sultan, ruled from Agra but did not shift the capital; he was defeated by Babur at Panipat in 1526. Daulat Khan Lodi was the governor of Punjab who invited Babur to invade, not a sultan.
