Solution

The correct option is A 1582
Akbar founded a new religion called Din-i-Ilahi in 1582. This Din-i Ilahi has been described as a combination of all moral principles of various religions which would satisfy all. In fact, Akbar wanted to introduce a national religion. In any case Din-i-Ilahi was not a proselytizing religion. It was confined to a selected few.
