Q. Which among these Indian Sultans is known for not sitting on a throne, but on a carpet along with his nobles?
Answer: Bahlol Lodi
Notes: Bahlol Lodi, an Afghan noble before becoming Sultan of Delhi, was known for his humble lifestyle. He used to sit on a carpet along with his nobles instead of a lavish throne, projecting equality among them. This was quite contrary to the contemporary norms where sultans highlighted their high status by sitting on extravagant thrones, causing a considerable distance from their subordinates.
