Solution

The correct option is B Alwar saints
Bhakti movement took place in Tamil Nadu between the seventh and the twelfth centuries. It found expression in the poems of the Nayanars (Shiva devotees) and the Alvars (Vaishnava devotees). These saints looked upon religion as a strong bond based upon love between the worshipped and worshipper.
