Question

Quintessence Classes · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Both 1 and 2. Both statements are incorrect because the descriptions of the two iconic Kashmiri poets have been swapped and their historical periods are misrepresented:• Statement 1 (Incorrect): Mahjoor (Ghulam Ahmad Mahjoor) was a 20th-century male poet (1887–1952). He is celebrated as the "Poet of Kashmir" and is famous for introducing a new style of nationalist, romantic, and socially conscious poetry. He is not a 16th-century poetess.• Statement 2 (Incorrect): Habba Khatoon was a 16th-century Kashmiri Muslim poetess (also known as the "Nightingale of Kashmir"). She was the queen of Yusuf Shah Chak and is renowned for her romantic and mystical "Lol" lyrics (short love poems). She is not a 20th-century male poet.
