Incorrect AnswerVikramaditya
Correct AnswerDhana Nanda
Incorrect AnswerKanishka
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
Sure, let's break down the options:
- Vima Kadphises—He was a ruler from the Kushan dynasty, not the Gupta dynasty.
- Vikramaditya (option 2)—This title was used by several Indian rulers, but most famously by Chandragupta II of the Gupta dynasty. He’s one of the most celebrated Gupta emperors.
- Dhana Nanda—He belonged to the Nanda dynasty, which came before the Mauryas and had nothing to do with the Guptas.
- Kanishka—Another great king, but from the Kushan dynasty, much earlier than the Guptas.
So, the only correct option is Vikramaditya.
