They are concentrated in the northern and northwestern parts of the state, particularly in the districts of Hyderabad, Ranga Reddy, and Medak.<\/p>\n<p>Muslims have a long history in Telangana. The first Muslim ruler of the region was Quli Qutb Shah, who founded the Qutb Shahi dynasty in 1518. The Qutb Shahis ruled Telangana for over 100 years, and during their reign, the region saw a great deal of cultural and economic development.<\/p>\n<p>After the Qutb Shahis, Telangana was ruled by the Mughals, the Nizams, and the British. During British rule, Muslims were discriminated against, and their educational and economic opportunities were limited.<\/p>\n<p>After India&#8217;s independence in 1947, Telangana became a part of the state of Hyderabad. In 1956, Hyderabad was merged with Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana became a part of that state.<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, Telangana was carved out of Andhra Pradesh to become a separate state. The formation of Telangana was a major victory for the Muslim community in the region.<\/p>\n<p>Muslims in Telangana face a number of challenges, including poverty, unemployment, and discrimination. However, they have also made significant contributions to the state&#8217;s economy and culture.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they do not constitute a significant proportion of Telangana&#8217;s population.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Muslims&#8221;
