Explanation:

Statement 1: As Firoz was guided by the ulemas, he was intolerant towards Shia Muslims and Sufis. He treated Hindus as second grade citizens and imposed Jiziya. In this respect he was the precursor of Sikandar Lodi and Aurangazeb.
Statement 2: Also he increased the number of slaves by capturing the defeated soldiers and young persons. So, 2 is wrong.
Statement 3: A new department called Diwan-i-Khairat was created to take care of orphans and widows. Free hospitals and marriage bureaus for poor Muslims were also established.
