d. The Mughal persecution of Buddhists and Hindus in the early era was a constant irritant to the dominant population of Hindus

Answer 1

One major role that religious tolerance played in the Mughal empire was that "a. Early rulers showed little interest in conversion but later rulers became so focused on it that they persecuted other religions," since conversion became far less "taboo".
