Solution
The correct option is A Slave Dynasty : Balban Qutub-ud-din Aibak (c.1206-10 CE) was the founder of the slave dynasty. He was a Turkish slave of Mohammad Ghori. Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq (c.1320-25 CE) founded the Tughlaq dynasty. Khilji empire was established by Jalaluddin Khilji (c.1290-1296 CE). The Sur empire or the second Afghan empire was founded by Sher Shah Suri. So the wrong pair is option A.
