Answer:
Explanation:
Aurangzeb’s Deccan Policy refers to the extended period of conflict and diplomacy between the Mughals and the states of Bijapur, Golconda and the Maratha Swarashtra under Shivaji and his successors.
Historians have attributed this to both territorial necessities of the Mughal State and Aurangzeb’s personal religious zeal.
The Deccan policy of Aurangzeb forms an important part of Mughal historical study since it can also be argued that the economical dimension of the conquest of Deccan marked the beginning of the decline of Mughal power in India.
