Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The Mughals' final notable emperor was Aurangzeb. The Mughals who followed him as monarchs were later Mughals. The first four Mughals were Muhammad Shah, Bahadur Shah, and Jahandar Shah. The so-called "Later Mughals" were inept and incapable of leading. As a result, the Mughal Empire started to disintegrate. They frequently fought over succession, which undermined the power of the Mughals. Aurangzeb, the emperor, had exhausted his empire's financial and military resources by waging a protracted war in the Deccan. Under his successors, the effectiveness of the imperial government decreased. Later, Mughal rulers struggled increasingly to keep their strong mansabdars under control.
