Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) Dewan-i-bandagani … Tughlaq
Dewan-i-Bandagani (department of slaves) was created by Firoz Shah Tughlaq, so the pair is correct. Dewan-i-Mustakhraj (arrears) was set up by Alauddin Khalji, not Balban; Dewan-i-Kohi (agriculture) was started by Muhammad bin Tughlaq, not Alauddin Khalji; Dewan-i-Arz (military) was instituted by Balban, not Muhammad Tughlaq. Thus only option (a) is correctly matched. ([licchavilyceum.com](https://licchavilyceum.com/upsc-civil-services-prelims-2001-solved-question-paper/?utm_source=openai))
