The correct answer is option 3, Iltutmish. During his reign, the Mongols under Genghis Khan invaded India. It`s important to understand the context of this invasion. Genghis Khan, the founder and ruler of the Mongol Empire, launched numerous campaigns of conquest throughout Asia during the 13th century. One of these campaigns reached as far as India, and it was under the reign of Iltutmish, who was the Sultan of Delhi from 1211 to 1236, that the Mongols invaded India. It`s worth noting that although Genghis Khan himself did not personally lead this invasion, his forces were still responsible for the assault on Indian territories.
