Q. Who among the following was the Minister and Chief Advisor of Nana Saheb Peshwa?
(a) Wajid Ali Shah
(b) Azimullah Khan
(c) Maulvi Ahmad Shah
(d) Amirullah Khan
Ans: (b) Azimullah Khan
Explanation: The correct answer is (b) Azimullah Khan.
Azimullah Khan was a prominent figure during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, also known as the Sepoy Mutiny. He served as the Chief Advisor and Minister of Nana Saheb, who was one of the leaders of the rebellion. Azimullah Khan played a crucial role in organizing and coordinating the activities of the rebel forces in Kanpur (then known as Cawnpore).
It’s worth noting that Wajid Ali Shah, Maulvi Ahmad Shah, and Amirullah Khan were not directly associated with Nana Saheb Peshwa or the rebellion. Wajid Ali Shah was the last Nawab of Awadh, Maulvi Ahmad Shah was a religious leader, and Amirullah Khan was a commander in the rebel forces but not specifically affiliated with Nana Saheb.
