Q. Sikandar Adil Shah was captured and his kingdom annexed in which of the following year?
Answer:
1686 CE
Notes: In 1686 CE, the Mughal army, led by Prince Azam Shah, invaded Bijapur, capturing Sikandar Adil Shah and annexing the kingdom. This ended the Adil Shahi dynasty's nearly two-century rule and expanded Mughal control over the Deccan. Sikandar later served the Mughals and received land in Malwa.
