A
Correct answer
Explanation
Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq, the founder of the Tughlaq dynasty, prohibited the production and sale of wine in Delhi as part of his policy to enforce Islamic law and moral discipline in the capital. This prohibition was part of broader reforms to create a more Islamic state structure. The question shows his name as both 'Ghiyasuddin' and 'Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq' - these refer to the same person.
