Solution

The correct option is C Deogiri
Alauddin Khalji (1296-1316 A.D.) came to the throne by treacherously murdering his uncle and father-in-law, Jalaluddin Khalji. As the governor of Awadh, Alauddin had accumulated a vast treasure by invading Deogiri in the Deccan. After murdering his uncle, Alauddin won over most of the Nobles and the soldiers to his side by a lavish use of gold.
