Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The Indo-Persian architectural style is the consequence of the Mughal appropriation of Hindu ideas and Persia's architectural styles. The Mughals built numerous forts, palaces, mosques, mausoleums, and other buildings. Every early Mughal emperor, except Aurangzeb, was a skilled architect. Persian architectural styles significantly impacted Indian architecture after the Mughals arrived. The Mughals' towns, forts, mosques, gardens, and mausoleums were all spectacular. Mughal constructions have a regular pattern in both character and structure. Under the guidance of Mughal kings, a distinctive Indo-Islamic architectural style known as "Mughal architecture" developed in northern and central India between the 16th and 18th centuries. It is an architectural fusion of Persian, Turkish, and Indian styles that are strikingly symmetrical and ornamental.
