Solution

The correct option is D Azamshah
After the death of Emperor Aurangzeb, Azamshah become the Emperor. He believed that if Shahu Maharaj was released, there would arise a conflict between him and Maharani Tarabai for the gadi of the Maratha Chhatrapati. Azamshah felt that this would sap the Maratha strength and therefore, released Shahu Maharaj.
