Solution

The correct option is C Indica
Megasthenes wrote the "Indica". It included his own detailed account of how things were run in the Mauryan Empire. "Indica" describes in detail about Pataliputra, the capital of the Mauryan Empire and its prosperity. It also contains accounts about the king, his security and lifestyle. Over time, the original "Indica" was lost.
