SSC Selection Post 2023 Graduation Level Question Paper (30 Jun, 2023) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Ziauddin Barani

The correct answer is Ziauddin Barani.

‘Tarikh-i-Firoz Shahi’ by Barani is valued for its detailed narrative, including accounts of the market regulations of Alauddin Khilji and the controversial policies of Muhammad bin Tughluq. Barani also wrote ‘Fatwa-i-Jahandari’, a work on political theory and the ideal conduct for a Muslim ruler. The historical writing style often focused on the reigns of kings and major political events. Studying these historical texts helps us reconstruct the history of the Delhi Sultanate and understand the perspectives of the chroniclers who lived during that era.
