Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)
The two states which Aurangzeb had conquered in Deccan were Bijapur and Golconda.
In 1685, Aurangzeb dispatched his son, Muhammad Azam Shah, with a force of nearly 50,000 men to capture Bijapur Fort and defeated Sikandar Adil Shah (the ruler of Bijapur) who refused to be a vassal.
The Mughals could not make any advancement upon Bijapur Fort mainly due to the superior usage of cannon batteries on both sides. Outraged by the stalemate, Aurangzeb himself arrived on 4 September 1686 and commanded the Siege of Bijapur; after eight days of fighting, the Mughals were victorious.
In 1687, Aurangzeb led his grand Mughal army against the Deccan Qutbshahi fortress during the Siege of Golconda.
