Correct Answer: Vincent Smith
Solution : The correct answer is Vincent Smith .
Akbar founded the Din-i Ilahi religion in 1582. Birbal was reportedly the only Hindu supporter of that initiative, but it failed because the people were not interested in this. Author Vincent Smith referred to the Din-i Ilahi as a monument to his foolishness rather than wisdom in his book ' The Early History of India' .
