Anangapal, among the given options, is credited with founding the city of Delhi. The Tomar rulers were a Rajput dynasty that ruled over the northern parts of India during the medieval period. Anangapal is believed to have established the city of Lal Kot, which later became the foundation for the city of Delhi. He ruled from around 1052 to 1056 and was known for strengthening the fortifications of Lal Kot. The city of Delhi grew in prominence under subsequent rulers, but Anangapal`s role in its founding is significant.
