Question 4:

Direction for Reading Comprehension: The passages given here are followed by some questions that have four answer choices; read the passage carefully and pick the option whose answer best aligns with the passage

The 18th century in Indian history, particularly its first half, was unfortunate in that it was sandwiched between the political glory of the Great Mughals and the humiliation of colonial rule. Further, the British who wrote the first modern histories of India’s past had their own interests in presenting a bleak portrayal of the period. The fact that most contemporary Persian chroniclers have also projected the period as one of total chaos and failure not only suited the interest of the British writers, but also lent strength to their interpretations. But we have to be on guard against the prejudices of these chroniclers, who in most cases, were proteges of the nobles, the premier beneficiaries of the Mughal imperial structure. They suffered as the regions resisted imperial control and obtained some independence from Delhi. We may also bear in mind that the Mughal throne and the person of the emperor was central to their vision and the decline of the imperial edifice was tantamount to a total collapse of all society.
Consider the following statements
1. The account of history given by Persian writers, helped a lot to the British writers in giving a negative interpretation of the Indian society.
2. The decline of Mughal throne led to the condition of confusion in all spheres of society.
