The correct answer is:

Aurangzeb.

Aurangzeb, contrary to his predecessors' tradition of pluralism and religious tolerance, was criticized for the establishment of the Jizya tax, the demolition of Hindu temples, and the killings of Maratha Kingdom ruler Sambhaji and Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh guru.

Aurangzeb reign lasted for 49 years from 1658 until his death in 1707. He was the sixth Mughal emperor and was considered to be the last effective Mughal emperor.
