Question

Who has completed the garden at Amber fort, Jaipur, Rajasthan?

• A. Nawab Wajid Ali Shah
• B. Raja Jai Singh II
• C. Raja Abhai Singh
• D. Sher Shah Suri

Hint:

Amber Fort's gardens, like Kesar Kyari, were developed over time by several Rajput rulers. Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, the founder of Jaipur, also played a role in the region's architectural and garden heritage. While earlier rulers initiated garden projects, later ones like Sawai Jai Singh II could have overseen their completion or further development.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Wajid Ali Shah (Awadh) and Abhai Singh (Marwar) ruled different regions, not Amber.
Step 2: Sher Shah Suri's reign predates the Kachwaha building phase at Amber.
Step 3: Jai Singh II, the Kachwaha ruler of Amber before founding Jaipur, completed its garden works.
Step 4: Correct answer: Raja Jai Singh II.
