Q. The famous chronicle “Rajatarangini” was written by?

[A] Kalidasa

[B] Kabirdas

[C] Kalhana

[D] Kumaradasa

Answer: C
Notes:

Explanation: Much of the history of Kashmir and North-west India is deduced from the legendary and historical chronicle Rajatarangini (which means ‘the river of kings’).

It was probably written in 12th century CE in Sanskrit by a Kashmiri Brahmana called Kalhana, though not much is known about him apart from what is written in the book.
