Correct Answer:

Mughals

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 3- Mughals

Ajmer became the suba headquarters under the Mughals.

A suba was a provincial administrative division in the Mughal Empire. The Mughals divided their empire into 12 subas, and Ajmer was the headquarters of the Ajmer suba.

Ajmer was an important city for the Mughals. It was a pilgrimage center for both Hindus and Muslims, and it was located on a major trade route.

The Mughal emperor Akbar made Ajmer the headquarters of the Ajmer suba in 1573. He also built a number of forts and palaces in Ajmer, including the Ajmer Fort and the Dargah of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti.
