(Event) | (Place/Person)
A.   Tarmashirin Khan’s invasion of India | 1. Vijayanagar
B.   Visit of Farnao Martinz Evangelho, the Portuguese factor | 2. Zainul Abidin
C.   Visit of the traveler Nuniz | 3. Champaner
D.   Network of canals in Tughlaq Kashmir Valley | 4. Muhammad

Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: C
Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 (A-4, B-3, C-1, D-2). This matching accurately aligns key medieval events with their respective rulers and locations:

  • A-4: The Chagatai Mongol ruler Tarmashirin Khan invaded India during the reign of Muhammad bin Tughlaq (c. 1326-27), reaching the outskirts of Delhi before being bought off or retreating.
  • B-3: Farnao Martinz Evangelho was a Portuguese factor sent to Champaner (Gujarat) during the 16th century to negotiate trade interests with the Sultanate of Gujarat.
  • C-1: Fernao Nuniz, a Portuguese horse trader and chronicler, visited the Vijayanagar Empire during the reign of Achyuta Deva Raya, providing vital socio-political accounts.
  • D-2: Zainul Abidin, known as the "Budshah" of Kashmir, is celebrated for his extensive public works, including a sophisticated network of canals to promote agriculture in the valley.

Other options are incorrect as they misalign these specific historical associations, such as linking Tarmashirin Khan to Kashmir or Nuniz to Champaner.
