keywords: 

{'dewan': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'alauddin khilji': [4, 0, 1, 1], 'muhammad tughlaq': [1, 0, 1, 2], 'balban': [0, 1, 0, 0], 'mustakhraj': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'kohi': [1, 0, 1, 0], 'arz': [0, 0, 1, 0]}

Dewan-i-Bandagani was a department established by Ghiyas-ud-din Tughlaq, hence option 1 "Dewan-i-bandagani ... Tughlaq" is correctly matched. He formed this division to manage public works and welfare schemes.

Analyzing the other options:

Option 2, "Dewan-i-Mustakhraj ... Balban" is incorrect. There`s no historical record of a department named Dewan-i-Mustakhraj established by Sultan Balban.

Option 3, "Dewan-i-Kohi ... Alauddin Khilji" is also mismatched. Dewan-i-Kohi was created by Firoz Shah Tughlaq, not Alauddin Khilji. It was aimed at developing wasteland agriculture.

Option 4, "Dewan-i-Arz ... Muhammad Tughlaq" is also incorrect. Dewan-i-Arz was a military department, but it was established by Alauddin Khilji, not Muhammad Tughlaq.

In conclusion, only option 1 correctly matches the department with the ruler who established it.
