Solution

The correct options are
C Indica by Megasthenes.
D Ashokan pillers and Stupas.
The marks that a dynasty leaves in the path of history becomes instrumental in knowing about them. The accounts of foreign travellers like Indica by Megasthenes also help us to draw some conclusion about an empire. The pillars and stupas of Ashoka also help us to find much about the Mauryas.
