The transition from the Slave Dynasty to the Khalji Dynasty is known as the 'Khalji Revolution'. Which of the following statements correctly describes the reason for this terminology?

Question

Accepted Answer

The accession of Jalaluddin Khalji in 1290 is termed a 'revolution' because it ended the monopoly of the Ilbari Turks (Slave dynasty) over power. The Khaljis, though of Turkish origin, had lived in Afghanistan and mixed with local populations, and they opened the nobility to Indian Muslims and other groups.
