• B. 2 and 3
• C. 1, 2 and 4
• D. 2 and 4

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1, 2 and 3

Chandragupta, I married the Lichchhavi princess Kumaradevi.

(1) The official records of the Gupta dynasty state that Samudragupta was succeeded by Chandragupta II, who was his son from queen Dattadevi. (2)Gupta records mention Dhruvadevi as Chandragupta's queen and the mother of his successor Kumaragupta I.

(3) Kuberanaga was another wife of Chandragupta II. Kumaragupta married Anantadevi. Hence, point 4 is wrong and Option A is correct. Among the rest, option B does not include Chandragupta I, Option C does not mention Dhruvadevi, but wrong point 4 while Option D mentions only Dattadevi and wrong point Kubernaga, hence, these are incorrect.
