Sayyid Brothers.
Explanation:
- Abdulla Khan and Hussain Ali Khan were the two brothers who were known as the Sayyid brothers.
- These two brothers helped Farrukh Siyar to become the emperor of the Mughal Empire.
- After him, they placed Rafi-Ud-Darajat to the Mughal throne on date 28th February 1719.
- They two managed all the administrative affairs of Rafi-Ud-Darajat.
- After Rafi-Ud-Darajat, the Sayyid brothers set Rafi-ud-daulah (also called Shah Jahan II) to the Mughal throne.

- As they were not actually the king but they were the one who decided the next Mughal emperor, so they came to be known as the Kingmakers.
