Amoghavarsha was famous as a cultural ruler of which dynasty?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: राष्ट्रकूट वंश — Rashtrakuta Dynasty
Amoghavarsha I, also known as Nripatunga, was a prominent ruler of the Rashtrakuta dynasty and ruled much of the Deccan in the ninth century. He is remembered not only for political authority but also for his support of literature, religion and the arts. The Kannada work Kavirajamarga is traditionally associated with his reign and illustrates the cultural importance of his court. Therefore option B, the Rashtrakuta Dynasty, is correct. The Palas belonged mainly to eastern India, the Satavahanas ruled much earlier, and the Khaljis were a later Delhi Sultanate dynasty. These distinctions remove the other options.
