The Mughals in India had an elaborate administrative setup. The emperor was the head of the central administration aided by different officials like Mir Bakshi, Diwan etc. The empire was divided into provinces called subas. Each suba was divided into sarkar. The local administration was looked after at the level of the pargana (sub-district). Thus, the correct sequence in ascending order in terms of size is Pargana – Sarkar – Suba. Therefore, option (a) is the correct answer.
