Consider the following statements:<br/>1. Saint Nimbarka was a contemporary of Akbar.<br/>2. Saint Kabir was greatly influenced by Shaikh Ahmad Sirhindi.<br/><br/>Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

1. Saint Nimbarka was a contemporary of Akbar — Incorrect. Nimbarka is generally placed in the medieval period much earlier than Akbar; he was not Akbar’s contemporary.
2. Saint Kabir was greatly influenced by Shaikh Ahmad Sirhindi — Incorrect. Kabir belonged to the 15th century, while Shaikh Ahmad Sirhindi lived in the late 16th–early 17th century, so Sirhindi could not have influenced Kabir.
Therefore, neither statement is correct.
