Solution

The correct option is C 2 only

Explanation:

  • Statement 1 is incorrect. Bindusara patronised Jainism
  • Statement 2 is correct. He was referred to as ‘Amitrochates’ by the Greek writers after his title ‘Amitraghatha' (slayer of foes)
  • Statement 3 is incorrect. Junagarh inscription doesn’t mention Bindusara. It mentions the construction of Sudarshan lake by Rudradaman.
