Tughril Khan raised a standard of revolt during whose reign?
Detailed Explanation:
Tughril Khan, governor of Bengal, revolted against Sultan Balban around 1279 CE. Balban (r. 1266–1286 CE) suppressed the rebellion decisively, had Tughril beheaded, and appointed his son Bughra Khan as the new governor.
This episode exemplifies Balban's policy of blood and iron to consolidate royal authority and break provincial autonomy during the Delhi Sultanate.
Therefore, Tughril Khan revolted during Balban's reign, making Option 4 the correct answer.
