How did party politics undermine the authority and prestige of the Mughal empire?

उत्तर
The Mughal court had four groups of nobles i.e Iranis, Turanis, Afghans, and Hindustanis. Due to these groups, the Mughal court was sharply divided from within. This resulted in a constant struggle for power, mutual jealousies, and rivalries between these groups, which led to undermining the authority and prestige of the Mughal empire.
