    Solution

    • Shahu Maharaj I was the Chhatrapati of the Maratha domain and the grandson of Shivaji. - In his early life stages, when he was just a 7-year-old boy, he was taken as a prisoner alongside his mother in the year 1689 by the Mughal forces after the conflict of Raigad. - After the decease of Aurangzeb in the year 1707 Bahadur Shah released Shahu in the desire of starting an interesting conflict between the Marathas and expecting Sahu to be on the side of Mughals for the succession fight of the Mughal Rule. Hence D is the correct answer.
