AnswerClick to flip back
A
Ala-ud-din Khilji
💡 Explanation:
Sher Shah Suri (1540-1545) adopted several administrative innovations from Ala-ud-din Khilji's reign (1296-1316), including an efficient revenue system, a well-organized spy network, and direct control over the nobility. The timeline works because Ala-ud-din ruled 200 years before Sher Shah. Akbar came later, and Babur's focus was military conquest rather than administration.
