    1. Ishwardas Nagar
    2. Bhimsen Kayastha
    3. Khafi Khan
    4. Mohammad Kazim
Correct Option: D

Mohammad Kazim was the official historian of Aurangzeb's reign. During the reign of Aurangzeb, the man picked to write the AlamgirNamah was Mirza Muhammad Kazim Shirazi. He successfully compiled facts about the first 10 years of Aurangzeb's rule. After this, Aurangzeb forbade kazim shirazi to continue any further probably because of the extravagant expenditure involved in this work.
