{'mughal court': [1, 0, 0, 2], 'meritorious men': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'padma murassa': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'honour': [0, 0, 4, 3], 'emperor': [2, 1, 1, 3], 'robe': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'sarapa': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'award': [0, 0, 6, 9], 'khilat': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'patka': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 4: Khilat. Khilat is the name of the award given to meritorious men in the Mughal Court. It is in the form of a robe of honour, which was once worn by the Emperor.

Let`s discuss the other options to understand them better:

Option 1: Sarapa - Sarapa is not the correct answer in this case. This term refers to someone who is completely bald or has a shaved head.

Option 2: Patka - Patka is also not the correct answer here. In the context of the Mughal Court, a patka is a type of turban or headgear worn by nobles and important officials.

Option 3: Padma murassa - Padma murassa is not the correct answer either. This term does not have any direct connection to the Mughal Court or the described award.

Based on the provided options, Khilat is the most appropriate answer as it directly corresponds to the given description of a robe of honour awarded to meritorious men in the Mughal Court.
