Which one of the following rulers built the Bibi ka Maqbara?

A. Akbar

B. Jahangir

C. Shahjahan

D. Aurangzeb

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The Bibi Ka Maqbara is a historic tomb located in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, India. It was commissioned in 1660 by Prince Azim Shah, the son of Aurangzeb, the Mughal emperor. The mausoleum was built in memory of Azim Shah's mother, Dilras Banu Begum. While Aurangzeb did not directly build the monument, it was commissioned during his reign in honor of his wife.

Akbar (Option A) was a renowned Mughal emperor known for his administrative reforms and contributions to art and culture.
Jahangir (Option B) was another Mughal emperor, known for his patronage of the arts and his interest in painting.
Shahjahan (Option C) is famously associated with the construction of the Taj Mahal in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal.

Therefore, the correct option is Option D: Aurangzeb, whose son commissioned the Bibi Ka Maqbara in honor of his mother.
