Explanation:

The first Mughal invasion of Deccan happened during the reign of Akbar (reign 1556-1605). In 1591, Akbar launched a diplomatic offensive. He sent embassies to all the Deccani states ‘inviting’ them to accept Mughal suzerainty. However, only Khandesh accepted this proposal and rest others did not pay heed. • The instability in Ahmednagar gave an opportunity for the Mughals to intervene in the Deccan. The Mughal invasion was led by prince Murad, who was the governor of Gujarat, and by Abdur Rahim Khani-Khanan. • The fight against invading Mughal forces was led by Chand Bibi. However, the factionalism in the Deccani forces led to their defeat. A treaty was signed in 1596 by the Mughals got Berar and the Mughal suzerainty was also recognised by Ahmednagar. The Mughals in return for their recognition of the claim of Bahadur. Hence, statement 1 is correct. • The Coup D’etat of Mahabat Khan occurred during the reign of Jahangir in 1626. Mahabat Khan was one of the most capable commanders of Jahangir. He was loyal to the throne and but he was one of those nobles who did not like the increased influence of Nur Jahan in the administration of the state. • In 1626, Mahabat Khan came with a trusted body of Rajputs and seized the emperor at an opportune moment when the royal camp was crossing the river Jhelum on its way to Kabul. Nur Jahan after a failed attempt to defeat Mahabat Khan surrendered herself in order to be close to Jahangir. However, later she was able to wean away most of the nobles from Mahabat Khan’s side. Realising his precarious position, Mahabat Khan abandoned Jahangir and fled from the court. Hence, statement 2 is correct. • The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan (1628 –1658) annexed the state of Ahmednagar in 1636 and a treaty was concluded with Bijapur. According to the treaty, the Nizam Shahi state came to an end. The territory of Ahmednagar was divided between the Mughals and Bijapur; the territory lying in the north of the Bhima river went to the Mughals while the area lying in the south to Adil Shah. • Aurangzeb became the Mughal ruler in 1658, twenty years later when the state of Ahmadnagar came to an end. Hence, statement 3 is not correct.
