Hint:
Prithviraj III ( 1178–1192 CE), prevalently known as Prithviraj Chauhan or Rai Pithora was a king from the Chahamana (Chauhan) line. He managed Sapadalaksha, the conventional Chahamana region, in present-day north-western India. He controlled a large part of the present-day Rajasthan, Haryana, and Delhi; and a few sections of Punjab, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.

Complete answer:
Chishtī Muʿīn al-Dīn Ḥasan Sijzī (1143–1236 CE), referred to all the more regularly as Muʿīn al-Dīn Chishtī or Moinuddin Chishti or Khwājā Ghareeb Nawaz, or respectfully as a Shaykh Muʿīn al-Dīn or Muʿīn al-Dīn or Khwājā Muʿīn al-Dīn by Muslims of the Indian subcontinent, was a Persian Muslim preacher, ascetic, strict researcher, scholar, and spiritualist from Sistan, who in the long run wound up getting comfortable the Indian subcontinent in the mid-thirteenth century, where he proclaimed the popular Chishtiyya mandate of Sunni enchantment.
It was during the rule of this head Prithvi Raj that Hazrat Khawaja Moinuddin Chishty showed up in Ajmer on his sacred mission in 1191 AD. He was prevalently known as "Gharib Nawaz", on account of his uncommon love for poor people.

Hence, the correct answer is option .

Note:
From the get-go in his profession, Prithviraj accomplished military victories against a few neighboring Hindu realms, most quietly against the Chandela ruler Paramardi. He likewise rebuffed the early intrusions by Muhammad of Ghor, a leader of the Muslim Ghurid line. In any case, in 1192 CE, the Ghurids crushed Prithviraj at the Second skirmish of Tarain and executed him soon after. His annihilation at Tarain is viewed as a milestone occasion in the Islamic triumph of India and has been depicted in a few semi-unbelievable records. The most mainstream of these records is Prithviraj Raso, which presents him as a "Rajput", in spite of the fact that the Rajput personality didn't exist during his time
