C Correct answer
Explanation

Akbar's marriage to the Rajput princess Jodha Bai (also known as Hira Kunwari or Harkha Bai) was a significant political alliance that helped consolidate Mughal-Rajput relations. However, some historical debate exists about the exact name and whether 'Jodha Bai' is historically accurate. Option A (Jija Bai) was associated with Shahaji Raje's wife, B (Meera Bai) was a devotee of Krishna, and D (Kasturi Bai) doesn't match this historical context.
