D ? 

Sounds Persian. 

Can this be counted as a logical guess :P I don't want to make such wild guess in exam, even when I chose the right one.

Would have skipped or marked between C and D...C because it sounds like the Padma Bhushan award and D because it sounds similar to Khilafat which translates into Caliphate - an honorary position. 

I too gussed this, Padma wala stuff but cancelled because I thought its more like hindu name then why would mughals keep it?

True. It's a Sanskrit word. Never heard of its admiration during mughals except for the Dhrupad song where syllables were Sanskrit.

Last year's question on "HUNDI" was directly picked from Medieval India's Old NCERT- Page 259 and was also one of the terms given in the exercise at the end of every chapters..

Anyway, doesn't matter now. Wish I had known all this maybe 2 months ago.. 


Whatever source you have read is the best source bro.. Dont bother much about other stuff..

@MikeWozniak Yes it is mentioned on page 241 of the book. I have only done TN board books and even though I have time for 2022 attempt, I don't know is it really worth the effort to go through entire NCERTs for Ancient and Medieval history.
