    Solution

    "Adhai-Din-ka-Jhopra," located in Ajmer, Rajasthan, India, was built by Qutb-ud-Din Aibak, the first Sultan of Delhi, in 1192 CE. It was originally a Sanskrit college commissioned by Vigraharaja IV, a Chauhan ruler, and later converted into a mosque by Aibak. The name "Adhai-Din-ka-Jhopra" translates to "shed of two and a half days," which is believed to refer to the short time taken to construct it.
