Solution
The correct option is C Khizr Khan Sayyid
Before his departure from India, Timur appointed Khizr Khan as the governor of Multan. He captured Delhi and founded the Sayyid dynasty in 1414 A.D. However, he did not assume the title of Sultan and accepted the sovereignty of Timur. Coins were struck and Khutba was read in the name of Timur, and after his death, in the name of his successor Mirza Shah Rukh.
