C .  1, 2, 3 and 4
D .  3, 2, 1, and 4
Answer: Option B
Answer: (b)
The correct chronological order of Mohammad Bin Tughlaq’s programme is;
increase of taxation in Doab,
promulgation of token currency,
transfer of capital,
Khurasan expedition.
During his reign, Tughluq imposed a heavy tax in the land between the Ganga and the Yamuna rivers.
Muhammad took a very modern step in introducing bronze coins as the token currency. Nevertheless, the absence of a central mint created a huge problem as the Government was not able to prevent forgery of coins. He transferred his capital in 1327 to Deogir (now Daulatabad).
The Sultan had a vision of universal conquest. He decided to conquest Khurasan and Iraq and mobilized a huge army for the purpose. But his expedition proved a failure.
