Complete answer: The Battle of Chandwar was fought in 1194 at modern-day Firozabad earlier known as Chandwar. The battle happened because of the first and second Battle of Tarain which was fought between Muhammad Ghori and Prithviraj Chauhan III. The battle of Chandwar was fought between Muhammad Ghori of Ghurid and Jayachandra of Kannauj. King Jayachandra belonged to the Gahadavala dynasty and his army was far superior over the army of Muhammad Ghori. The battle was won by Muhammad Ghori.
-The Second Battle of Taraori happened in 1192 by Muhammad of Ghur. With the defeat in the first battle of Taraori Mohammed was prepared for this time and defeated Prithviraj.
-During 1193 the Bihar province was conquered by Muiz al-din in the aftermath of the second Battle of Taraori. After conquering Bihar he eradicated Buddhism in that area.
-Similarly, Muiz returned to Ghazni and appointed Qutubuddin Aibak as his regional governor for Northern India. During the period of 1195 to 97, the army led by Aibak and Muiz invaded and plundered Anahilapataka.
Therefore, the correct answer is option-C.

Note: King Jayachandra had faced multiple injuries during the battle and eventually died which gave Muhammad Ghori victory and domination or conquest of much of Northern India. In 1197 Jay Chandra's son Harishchandra recovered kanauj, Mirzapur and Jaunpur and expelled the Turkish garrisons from the cities. The city of Kanauj remained independent until the rule of Iltutmish.
