Solution

The correct option is A Humayun
Humayun ascended the throne in 1530 and in 1533 he founded a new city, Din Panah, on the banks of the Yamuna River. But in 1540 Sher Shah defeated Humayun and completely destroyed Din Panah to the ground and built his new capital, the Sher Shahi, now known as Purana Qila fort, in southeastern Delhi.
