Consider the following Bhakti Saints : 1. Dadu Dayal 2. Guru Nanak 3. Tyagaraja Who among the above was/were preaching when the Lodi dynasty fell and Babur took over?

Correct Answer: B) 2 only Let's analyze each saint: Guru Nanak (1469-1539): He was born in 1469 and began preaching his message of unity and universal brotherhood during the reign of the Lodi dynasty. The Lodi dynasty fell in 1526 with the First Battle of Panipat, and Babur established the Mughal Empire. Therefore, Guru Nanak was actively preaching during this transition. Dadu Dayal (1540-1603): Dadu Dayal was born much later, in 1540, well after Babur had established Mughal rule. He was a prominent figure in the 16th and 17th centuries. Tyagaraja (1816-1876): Tyagaraja was a Carnatic music composer and a saint who lived in the 19th century, centuries after the Lodi dynasty and Babur. Therefore, only Guru Nanak was preaching when the Lodi dynasty fell and Babur took over. Why other options are incorrect: A) 1 and 3: Tyagaraja lived much later. C) 2 and 3: Tyagaraja lived much later. D) 1 and 2: Dadu Dayal lived after Babur's reign.
