History

Pakistan won the Hockey World Cup for the 4th time in 1994. The tournament was held in Sydney, Australia, and Pakistan defeated the Netherlands in the final to claim their fourth title.

Sultan Balban is known for presenting the 'Theory of Kingship' during the Delhi Sultanate period, emphasizing the divine right and absolute authority of the king. This theory reinforced the centralization of power and the king's role as the ultimate ruler.

Jahangir is known for his unique practice of hanging a chain with bells outside his palace to hear the sound and be alerted to visitors or disturbances. This was a distinctive feature of his reign, unlike Akbar or Shah Jahan.

Iltutmish was the first Sultan of Delhi to issue regular currency and officially declare Delhi as the capital of his empire, consolidating the Delhi Sultanate's power. Amar Shah and Balban did not perform these specific acts.

Din-i-Ilahi was a syncretic religion propounded by Emperor Akbar. It was discontinued by his son, Emperor Aurangzeb, who was known for his orthodox Islamic policies.

The second part of the Government of India Act 1935, which proposed a federal structure, could not be implemented primarily because the All India Congress did not wish to join the federal government, leading to the failure of the federation. The refusal of Indian princes and other factors contributed, but the Congress's non-cooperation was the main reason.

Emperor Jahangir was the first Mughal ruler to allow the British East India Company to establish trade links in India, granting them permission to set up factories and trade posts.

The Gandhi-Irwin Pact was signed in 1931 as an agreement between Mahatma Gandhi and the British Viceroy Lord Irwin to suspend the civil disobedience movement and release political prisoners.

The penultimate Viceroy of India was Lord Wavell, who served from 1943 to 1947. He was the second last Viceroy before Lord Mountbatten, the last Viceroy who oversaw the independence and partition of India in 1947. Lord Minto served much earlier, from 1905 to 1910, and thus was not the penultimate Viceroy. Warren Hastings and Lord Canning were also earlier Governors-General or Viceroys, but not the penultimate.

Muhammad Tughluq shifted his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad in an attempt to better control the Deccan region. This historical fact is well documented and Daulatabad was the new capital for a brief period.
