Solution

The correct option is A Chera
Among the eight Sangam anthologies, Purananuru and Pattupattu are concerned with life outside family - kings, wars, greatness, generosity, ethics and philosophy. While Pattupattu is limited to the glory of Chera kings in 108 verses, Purananuru contains an assortment of themes in three hundred ninety seven poems. Of the original 400 poems, two have been lost, and some poems miss several lines.
