Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Minhaj I Siraj was a chronicler who was from the Persian region. He belonged to the 13th century and is known for writing on the Indian subcontinent. Occasionally he used the terms like Hindustan, which is very different from what we understand by this term. In the 13th century, he wrote a chronicle with the word Hindustan, meaning the areas of Punjab, Haryana, and the lands between Ganga and Yamuna. The context of him using this word was to indicate the political extent of the rulers of the Delhi Sultan. And it also became clear that this term would never include the regions of South India as the Delhi Sultan's domination did not extend to the far south.
