Solution

The correct option is C Justice
Jahangir was the fourth Mughal Emperor who ruled from 1605 until his death in 1627. He is famous for his ‘golden chain of justice’. A golden chain having 60 bells and weighing several ‘maunds’ was fastened between the Shahburj of Agra fort and a stone pillar raised on the banks of river Jamuna. People seeking justice were required to pull this chain in order to put forth their complaints or petitions to the King. This act speaks highly of the importance of justice during his reign.
