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.
