The correct answer is option 1: Razia Sultana. Razia Sultana is known as the first Muslim woman who ruled Northern India. She ascended to the throne in 1236 AD and ruled as the Sultan of Delhi. Razia Sultana was the daughter of Sultan Iltutmish and was trained in military and administrative skills from a young age. Despite facing opposition and criticism due to her gender, she proved to be a capable ruler and implemented several reforms during her brief reign. Despite her achievements, Razia Sultana`s rule was challenged by rebellions and she was eventually dethroned and killed. However, her reign marked an important milestone in Indian history as a powerful female ruler in a predominantly male-dominated society.
