Explanation:

Harshavardhana (590–647 CE) was a Pushyabhuti/Vardhana emperor who ruled northern India from 606 to 647 CE.

Harsha was a patron of learning and the arts and had various talents himself. He is supposed to have written three dramas, a work on grammar, and at least two Sutra works. The three plays attributed to him are the Ratnavali, Priyadarshika, and Nagananda.

The Banskhera inscription has the king’s signature and shows his calligraphic skills. x Hence, option (a) is the correct answer.
