Which Mughal emperor led a campaign against Kashmir, and in which year did it took place?
Akbar, 1586
The question asks which Mughal emperor led a military campaign to conquer Kashmir and in which year.
Emperor Akbar sent his forces into the Kashmir Valley and annexed it to the Mughal Empire in 1586.
The valley was then ruled by the Chak dynasty, and Akbar’s conquest brought Kashmir formally under Mughal control.
Therefore the correct pairing is Akbar, 1586.
Babur (option A) and Humayun (option B) never annexed Kashmir; the region was integrated only during Akbar’s reign, so the years 1531 and 1538 are incorrect.
Jahangir, Akbar’s successor, was famous for building gardens in Kashmir but did not lead its original conquest, so 1617 is wrong.
Hence the correct answer is Akbar, 1586.
