  1. Who was the author of Ain-i-Akbari ?
    1. Abdul Qadir Badauni
    2. Gulbadan Begum
    3. Faizi
    4. Abul Fazl
Correct Option: D

Abul Fazal was the author of 'Ain-i-Akbari'. The Akbarnama is a document of history of Akbar's reign and his ancestors spread over three volumes. It contains the history of Akbar's ancestors from Timur to Humayun, Akbar's reign up to the 46th regnal year (1602), and an administrative report of Akbar's empire, the Ain-i-Akbari, which itself is in three volumes. The third volume of Ain-i-Akbari gives an account of the ancestry and life of the author. The Ain-i-Akbari was completed in the 42nd regnal year, but a slight addition was made to it in the 43rd regnal year on the account of the conquest of Berar.
