SSC Selection Post 2023 PYQ — Question 40

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Humayun and Sher Shah

The construction of Purana Quila (Old Fort) in Delhi is primarily associated with two rulers: Humayun and Sher Shah Suri. Humayun began building the city of Dinpanah (Refuge of Religion) at the site. Later, Sher Shah Suri, after defeating Humayun, demolished parts of Dinpanah and constructed his city and fortifications, known as Shergarh, which included what we now recognize as the Purana Quila. Therefore, both rulers contributed to its current form.
