Correct Answer: Akbar


Solution : The correct option is Akbar .

Akbar, the third Mughal emperor, instituted the Mansabdari system in 1571. In the Mughal Empire, there was a system of ranking and categorising military and civil personnel. "Mansab" is an Arabic term that signifies rank or position . The Mansabdari system was founded on two principles: Zat rank , a measure of an officer's position defined by his ancestry, education and experience and Sawar rank, a measure of an officer's military power by the number of cavalrymen he was authorised to command.
