Solution

The correct option is B 1605
Jahangir was the fourth Mughal Emperor who ruled from 1605 until his death in 1627. He was the son of Emperor Akbar. He is known for his justice, his patronage for paintings, etc. He preserved the Mughal tradition of a highly centralized form of government. He is also known for granting permission or 'Farman' to Thomas Roe to trade in Surat which led to the establishment of the English factory at Surat on a permanent basis.
