Answer for the question one may include the following points:
a) aurangzeb did not nominated any one as to be the ruler after him.
b) the rulers that came after him were not strong enough to maintain their power and the disturbance caused due to rebellions throughout the country by other rulers were a major cause for the succession disputes bcz all the local rulers wanted to establish themselves as the emperor.
c) due to these disputes the strength of the empire weakened and it caused the decline of the empire as there was increasing hatred between the local rulers and they fought amongst themselves and made further inroads towards disputes and succession wars.

check whether the 3rd point is correct. Or if you may want to include any further relevant points , so plz do so.

Bro.. you didnt understand the question to some extent...
As it asks only about " WHY were there disputes"

I agree with your First point..
and the second too, but include the "greed of wealth" too in that point
the third point you said is referring to the decline of mughal empire which is not what the Question asks for..

I guess the third point could be..
:- The instigation of mischief chiefs who misguided the successors led to the Disputes among the heirs..

q1 . -aurangzeb did not nominate any successor
-every successor wanted power
-people also wanted to see their beloved princes(aurangzeb's sons) as rulers causing further disputes

Question 2 may have the following references:
a) they were superior in technology and had the latest weapons to establish their rule and dominate.
b) British were the super power at that time in the world and they had the resources to make inroads into India and gradually establish themselves as the masters of India through wise political measures taken by them. The British government also backed the eic armed forces and gave them full support to develope in india and provide a platform to enter India in order to take control.
c) mughals had weakened themselves due to succession disputes. and the fact that no able enough ruler came after aurangzeb to handle the affairs of the empire effectively made a clear way for the British to slowly and gradually take over India from the mughals.

3 are enough. your feedback mustafa:coffee:

the 3rd point shall be explained as," that due to the different likings of different people regarding as to whom should be the king, caused differences in opinions amongst the people and they fought each other to support their candidates to the throne. This restlessness and in-fighting in the empire caused succession disputes after aurangzebs death".

Well..
the answer to third Question can be..
Why did the mughals have to face so many rebellions during their rule? /7
  1. The mughal empire was a mighty empire, the emperors could not know what was happening in every part of empire.. whenever a rebellion broke out, it was months before the emperer could take any decessive action.
  2. Different cultures,religions in the empire, every reform introduced were implemented in whole empire , it was likely that any group of people was dissatisfied by them, the empire always had pressure from saperate elements rebelling against the rule.
  3. the mughal army's expertise declining.. and when it became obvious that mughal strength was declining, discontent groups within the empire were quick to launch rebellions in the different parts or empire.
Set me right if its wrong.. i hope its right...

I think we can sum up the correct points of question 3 as....

Why did the mughals have to face so many rebellions during their rule? /7

  1. 1) some hindus considered him to be anti-hindu (due to some of aurangzebs policies , such as reimposing jizya tax on the hindus) and a very strict and intolerant religious personality, so they arose in rebellion against the authorities at delhi, main rebellion was in deccan from the marathas.
  2. inadequate administration of aurangzeb
  3. The mughal empire was a mighty empire, the emperors could not know what was happening in every part of empire.. whenever a rebellion broke out, it was months before the emperer could take any decessive action
  4. Different cultures,religions in the empire, every reform introduced were implemented in whole empire , it was likely that any group of people was dissatisfied by them, the empire always had pressure from saperate elements rebelling against the rule.
  5. the mughal army's expertise declining.. and when it became obvious that mughal strength was declining, discontent groups within the empire were quick to launch rebellions in the different parts or empire.
