The correct option is B Muqaddam During the reign of Delhi Sultanate, the empire was divided into Provinces, Shiqs, Parganas and Villages. These divisions were looked after by the respective officers appointed for each division. A village was under the control of a Muqaddam. The officer had to maintain law and order, judicial administration, collection of taxes, and organisation of the army.
