Explanation
- A
I, II, IV, III
I, II, IV, III would start with Rabia Daurani’s tomb (Aurangzeb era, 17th century), which is the latest of the four, not the earliest.
- B
IV, II, III, I
The missing list on the official paper is: I Rabia Daurani’s Tomb, Aurangabad; II Sher Shah’s Tomb, Sasaram; III Humayun’s Tomb, Delhi; IV Atala Mosque, Jaunpur. Order: Atala Mosque (c. 1408) → Sher Shah (c. 1545) → Humayun (1570) → Bibi ka Maqbara (1660s–78). That is IV, II, III, I — the official key.
- C
II, I, III, IV
II, I, III, IV starts at Sasaram then jumps to Aurangabad before Humayun — chronologically false.
- D
III, IV, II, I
III, IV, II, I starts with Humayun before Atala Mosque, which is a century earlier.
Summary. Official key is (b) IV, II, III, I. Atala Mosque, Jaunpur → Sher Shah’s tomb, Sasaram → Humayun’s tomb, Delhi → Rabia Daurani (Bibi ka Maqbara), Aurangabad.
