Explanation by: Admin

The Bahmani Sultanate, founded in 1347, initially had its capital at Gulbarga (also called Ahasanabad).

  • Later, the capital was shifted to Bidar, but Gulbarga was the original and first capital of the Bahmani kings.
  • Gulbarga is located in present-day Karnataka.

Why other options are incorrect:

  • (A) Belgaum: Was never the capital of Bahmani Sultanate.
  • (B) Raichur: Important for battles but not the capital.
  • (D) Bijapur: Capital of the later Adil Shahi dynasty, not Bahmani.

So, the Bahmani capital was Gulbarga.
