• A. Only i
• B. Only iii and iv
• C. Only i and ii
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Let's analyze each match:
i. Sher Shah's Tomb — Sasaram: This is a correct match. Sher Shah Suri’s tomb is located in Sasaram, Bihar.
ii. Shalimar Garden — Srinagar: This is also a correct match. Shalimar Bagh is a famous Mughal garden in Srinagar, Jammu & Kashmir.
iii. Bibi ka Maqbara — Hyderabad: This is incorrect. Bibi ka Maqbara is located in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, not Hyderabad.
iv. Hawa Mahal — Jodhpur: This is incorrect. Hawa Mahal is located in Jaipur, Rajasthan, not Jodhpur. Hence, only pair i and ii are correctly matched. Although option (B) is marked as correct in the original answer key, it is factually inaccurate.
