Solution

The correct option is A Guru Ramdas
Guru Ramdas (1534-1581) was the fourth of the ten Gurus in Sikhism. He acquired the land for the construction of the Harmandir Sahib or the Golden Temple, the holiest Gurudwara and the most important pilgrimage site of Sikhism. The land for the temple was believed to be donated to Guru Ramdas by the then Mughal emperor Akbar.
