Solution

The correct option is D Shakari
Broach, Cambay and Sopara were the ports controlled by Chandragupta II. Shakari was the title given to him since he defeated the Shakas of Malwa, Gujarat and Saurashtra. He is also known as Vikramaditya of Ujjain. The western conquest gave him control of the Arabian Sea and western seaports. These included important ports like Broach, Cambay and Sopara. With the sea route in hand, the Gupta empire was able to expand trade and commerce. The empire now extended from the Brahmaputra in the east to the Chenab and Arabian Sea in the west.
