Solution

The correct option is A
(a) Dharmapala

Vikramashila was one of the two most important centres of Buddhist learning in India during the Pala empire, along with Nalanda. Vikramashila was established by King Dharmapala (783 to 820 A.D.) in response to a supposed decline in the quality of scholarship at Nalanda
