[amp_mcq option1=”Captain Hawkins” option2=”Sir Thomas Roe” option3=”Bernier” option4=”Jean Baptiste Travernier ” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is (a) Captain Hawkins.<\/p>\n
Hawkins was an English merchant and diplomat who was the first Englishman to visit the Mughal court of Emperor Jahangir. He arrived in India in 1608 and was granted an audience with the emperor in 1609. Hawkins remained at the Mughal court for several years, and he was instrumental in establishing trade relations between England and the Mughal Empire.<\/p>\n
Bernier was a French physician and traveler who visited India in the 17th century. He wrote a detailed account of his travels, which included a description of the Mughal court. Bernier’s account is an important source of information about the Mughal Empire.<\/p>\n
Travernier was a French traveler who visited India in the 17th century. He also wrote a detailed account of his travels, which included a description of the Mughal court. Travernier’s account is another important source of information about the Mughal Empire.<\/p>\n
However, neither Bernier nor Travernier was the first Englishman to visit the Mughal court. That distinction belongs to Captain Hawkins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
