Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D(उलेमा)
सल्तनत काल में ऊंचे धार्मिक और न्यायिक पदों पर बैठे व्यक्तियों (उलेमा) को सामूहिक रूप से ‘दस्तार बन्दान’ (पगड़ी पहनने वाले) कहा जाता था; क्योंकि वे सिर पर आधिकारिक रूप से पहनी जाने वाली पगड़ी धारण करते थे।
During the Delhi Sultanate period, persons occupying high religious and judicial offices (the Ulema) were collectively called 'Dastar-Bandan' ('turban wearers'), as they were officially distinguished by wearing ceremonial turbans.
