Q. Consider the following: - Hasan Gangu was a prominent military leader before founding the Bahmani Kingdom
- The Bahmani Kingdom was established in the 15th century
Which of the above statements is / are correct?
Answer:
Neither 1 nor 2
Notes: Neither of the above observations regarding the Bahmani Kingdom are correct. Hasan Gangu was an Afghan officer who led a revolt against Sultan Muhammad-bin-Tughlaq, which led to the establishment of the Bahmani Kingdom in the 14th century, specifically in 1347 AD, not the 15th century. Thus, he was not primarily a military leader and the Bahmani Kingdom was established a century earlier than stated.
