Firoz Shah Tughluq.<\/p>\n<p>Firoz Shah Tughluq (1351-1388) was the fifth Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate. He was a great administrator and a successful military commander. He is best known for his land reforms, which included the introduction of a new land tax system called the Kharaj. The Kharaj was a land tax that was levied on all agricultural land in the Delhi Sultanate. It was a progressive tax, which meant that the rate of taxation increased with the value of the land. The Kharaj was a very effective way of raising revenue for the Delhi Sultanate. It also helped to improve the efficiency of the agricultural sector.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect. Alauddin Khilji (1296-1316) was the second Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate. He was a great military commander, but he was not as successful an administrator as Firoz Shah Tughluq. Qutbuddin Aibak (1206-1210) was the first Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate. He was a great military commander, but he did not have time to implement any major land reforms. Mahmood Shah (1451-1489) was the fifth Sultan of the Lodi dynasty. He was not as successful as Firoz Shah Tughluq in terms of land reforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Firoz Shah Tughluq&#8221; option2=&#8221;Alaudin Khilji&#8221; option3=&#8221;Qutbuddin Aibak&#8221; option4=&#8221;Mahmood Shah&#8221; correct=&#8221;option1&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[496],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21563","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-indian-culture","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Under which Delhi Sultan&#039;s rule, was the Kharaj in the form of a proper land tax levied over large parts of northern India?
