Solution :
Exp. [b] Gunpowder and gunpowder weapons were transmitted to India through the Mongol invasions of India. It was written in the Tarikh-I Firishta (1609) that the envoy of the Mongol ruler Hulagu Khan was presented with a pyrotechnics display upon his arrival in Delhi in 1258 AD. Firearms known as top-o-tufak also existed in the Vijayanagara empire by as early as 1366 AD. The Delhi Sultanate brought two new architectural ideas, the pointed arch and the dome. The dome forms the major decorative component in Islamic buildings, and soon the same was introduced in several other structures. The true or pointed arch used during this period, was totally dissimilar to that of the arches which were being constructed within the country before. The Mughal Empire formed in 1526 by Babur (1483-1530 AD). Successfully conquered Delhi from Afghanistan and established the. Timurid Dynasty there.
