Discussion
Given below are two statements, one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other labelled as Reason (R) :
Assertion (A) : Like his father and Surs, Humayan was not willing to recognize any power politically superior to him.
Reason (R) : He himself assumed the title of Khalifa.
In the context of the above two statements, which one of the followings is correct ?
Codes :
Answer: C
The official key is (C): the assertion is true and the reason is false. Humayun, like his father Babur and like the Surs who ruled for a time, did not recognise a power politically above him, and he was willing to press his claim to rule independently. The reason is the problem: the sources do not show Humayun taking the title of Khalifa, since the Mughal ruler styled himself Padshah and claimed legitimacy from descent from Timur and Chingiz. So (A) and (B), which accept the reason, are wrong, and (D) denies the assertion.
