Solution
The correct option is D Statement 1 is false but statement 2 is true. Under the Mughal Empire, society was divided into two broad groups based on religion- Hindus and Muslims. Initially, the two groups did not have much social interaction between them. There were no inter-marriages or inter-dining among the people of these communities. There were times when these differences created tension and even hostility between the two sides. However, the two groups had learnt to live in harmony with each other under the Mughals, that led to a system of peaceful coexistence between the two.
