Explanation
Herman Kulke wrote The State in India: 1000–1700 (3); Brajadulal Chattopadhyaya wrote The Making of Early Medieval India (4); Peter Jackson wrote The Delhi Sultanate: A Political and Military History (1); Sunil Kumar wrote The Emergence of the Delhi Sultanate, AD 1192–1296 (2). The pairings turn on each historian’s specialisation: Kulke and Chattopadhyaya on the early-medieval state, Jackson and Kumar on the Delhi Sultanate. The correct code is therefore A-3, B-4, C-1, D-2, giving (B).
