Answer 1

Answer:

Some historians have described the period of the Sultanate as barren from literary point of view. But, the majority of historians do not accept this view. They say that a medium success was achieved in the field of literature during this period. Literature was produced not only in Persian and Sanskrit but also in other regional languages.

The Sultans of Delhi and rulers of provincial dynasties provided shelter to different scholars who produced historical, religious and literature in other fields of knowledge as well. The same way, books in the form of drama, poetry, prose etc. were written.
