The correct answer is option 2 - The second battle of Tarain. This battle, fought in 1192 CE between the forces of Muhammad Ghori and Prithviraj Chauhan, resulted in the establishment of Muslim power in India. Muhammad Ghori, the ruler of the Ghurid Empire in present-day Afghanistan, had previously been defeated by Prithviraj Chauhan in the first battle of Tarain. However, Ghori returned with a stronger army and defeated Chauhan in the second battle. This victory marked the beginning of Muslim rule in India and led to the subsequent establishment of the Delhi Sultanate. It also paved the way for further invasions by Muslim rulers and had a lasting impact on the history and culture of the Indian subcontinent.
