Question:

Which ruler found the city of Agra?

Options:

Babur

Allauddin Khilji

Sikander Lodi

Rana Kumbha

Correct Answer:

Sikander Lodi

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 3- Sikander Lodi

The ruler who founded the city of Agra is Sikandar Lodi.

Sikandar Lodi, the Sultan of Delhi who reigned from 1489 to 1517, is credited with ordering the execution of Kabir.
Kabir's teachings reportedly faced opposition from some religious scholars who accused him of blasphemy. This likely contributed to the Sultan's decision to order his execution.
The specific details surrounding the accusations and trial leading to Kabir's execution are not entirely clear-cut.
However, the historical consensus points towards Sikandar Lodi as the Sultan who issued the order for Kabir's hanging.
