MH SET 2025 Paper 2 Hindi Question Paper (15-Jun-2025)
The correct answer is

Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah

Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah option is correct.

The Charminar, the four-arched, four-minaret monument that stands at the heart of the old city of Hyderabad, was raised as the ceremonial centrepiece of a new capital laid out on the south bank of the Musi river, replacing the older Qutb Shahi seat at Golconda fort.

The Charminar and the city of Hyderabad around it were founded in 1591 CE by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah (r. 1580–1612), the fifth ruler of the Golconda Qutb Shahi dynasty and himself a distinguished Urdu and Persian poet. Traditional accounts say he built it in thanksgiving for the abatement of a plague, and it has since served as the emblem of the Qutb Shahi capital.

Muhammad Qutb Shah (r. 1612–1626), Abdullah Qutb Shah (r. 1626–1672) and Abul Hasan Qutb Shah (r. 1672–1687) were later Golconda rulers who inherited — but did not construct — the Charminar.
