Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Location-based General Awareness questions test whether a historical monument or fort is correctly matched to its state. Exams often pair well-known forts and tombs with distractor states from other regions of India, so the key is knowing each site's actual location, not just recognising its name.

  1. Sultan Ghari's Tomb stands in Delhi. It is the tomb of Nasiruddin Mahmud, son of Sultan Iltutmish, and is regarded as one of the earliest Islamic mausoleums in India.

  2. Warangal Fort stands in Telangana. It was built by the rulers of the Kakatiya dynasty near present-day Warangal.

  3. Lakhota Fort stands in Gujarat. It sits on an island within Ranmal Lake at Jamnagar, and was built in the mid-19th century (around 1839-46) by Jam Ranmal II, originally as famine-relief work.

  4. Jaigarh Fort stands in Rajasthan. It overlooks Amber near Jaipur and was built by Sawai Jai Singh II.
