AnswerClick to flip back
A
Jalaluddin Mangbarni
💡 Explanation:
Changez Khan (Genghis Khan) pursued Jalaluddin Mangbarni, the last Khwarazmian ruler, to the Indus River. After the Mongol conquest of the Khwarazmian Empire (1218-1221), Mangbarni fled across Central Asia with Genghis Khan's forces in pursuit. He was eventually granted refuge in India by Iltutmish but became a source of political tension. The other options were Indian rulers of different eras - Nasiruddin Mahmud (Iltutmish's son), Nasiruddin Qubacha (a rival governor), and Mohammad Ghori (12th century invader).
