Prayag Prashasti
What does Prashasti means ? Prashasti means commendation, taarif …
Right…
Now let’s eliminate…
We all know, Samudragupta was a great poet and musician too.
How ? The coins shows him while playing Veena…
C and D eliminated
Now, we all know that the earlier kings had the habit of exaggeration..
How ? Ashoka the great wrote in his edict that More than 150 Millions perished in the Kalinga…. Obviously an exaggeration…
One thing is obvious, the King Samudragupta was an intellectual person…
He was definitely not a sculptor… Quite illogical…
