Why can Akbar's Rajput policy be called a soft power strategy of imperial expansion?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because cooperation and marriage alliances brought support

Akbar built political and matrimonial ties with several Rajput houses and granted their rulers mansabs and important administrative positions. Thus, he gained loyalty and cooperation rather than relying only on conquest, making the policy an example of soft power in imperial expansion. A policy based solely on repression would be the opposite of this approach. Exam tip: Remember the key features of the Rajput policy—marriage alliances, mansabdari, and participation in administration.
