Correct Answer: Aurangabad


Solution : The correct answer is Aurangabad .

Muhammad bin Tughluq moved his capital from Delhi to Devagiri, which is now known as Aurangabad, and named it Daulatabad. There were two primary reasons for this decision: first, to centralise the capital city within the vast empire, and second, to protect it from external attacks and invasions.
