- The Slave Dynasty (also known as the Mamluk Dynasty)
- The Khilji Dynasty

- The Lodi Dynasty
The question specifically asks which dynasty ruled Delhi immediately after the Khilji dynasty.
The Khilji dynasty ruled the Delhi Sultanate from 1290 to 1320 CE. After the end of the Khilji dynasty's rule, the next dynasty to take control of the Delhi Sultanate was the Tughlaq dynasty.
The Tughlaq dynasty began its rule in 1320 CE and lasted until 1414 CE, making it the longest-reigning dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate.
