Solution

The correct option is A Sreekaranandi
Towards the end of the 13th century we notice a common literary feature emerging in eastern India that becomes very prominent by the 16th century A.D. not only in the east but also in the south. Vyasa’s Mahabharata was translated first into Bengali and then into Assamese, Oriya, Telegu and Kannada. The reasons for this remarkable synchronicity deserve further study. For the present, let us look at the picture in Bengal.
