CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. Fatehpur Sikri is in Uttar Pradesh, near Agra, and was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1986.

  2. Rajasthan is plausible because the site is close to the state boundary and to Mughal Rajput alliances.

  3. Uttar Pradesh also holds the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort, both inscribed in 1983.

Worth noting

Three of India's inscribed Mughal-era properties are in Uttar Pradesh and two are in Delhi. Knowing that split answers several questions at once.
