Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. KadambariA. कादम्बरी
Explanationव्याख्या
According to the supplied source, the correct answer is Kadambari.
The book describes Kadambari as a romantic novel written in Sanskrit.
It states that the work was substantially composed by Banabhatta during the first half of the 7th century CE.
The source further says that Banabhatta did not live to see the work completed.
According to the book, the novel was subsequently completed by Banabhatta's son Bhushan Bhatt, following the plan laid out by his late father.
Thus the important source-based revision chain is: Kadambari → Sanskrit romantic novel → substantially composed by Banabhatta → first half of the 7th century CE → completed by his son Bhushan Bhatt according to Banabhatta's plan.
The other options are Mrichchhakatika, Meghaduta and Gita Govinda.
The English question itself is grammatically malformed in the source—'Which of the following is an ancient written by Banabhatta?'—and that wording has been preserved rather than silently corrected.
The Hindi rendering communicates its evident intended meaning.
Therefore option (a), zero-based answer index 0, is the printed answer.
स्रोत के अनुसार सही उत्तर कादम्बरी है। पुस्तक Kadambari को संस्कृत में लिखा गया romantic novel बताती है। स्रोत के अनुसार इसकी रचना का अधिकांश भाग Banabhatta ने सातवीं शताब्दी ईस्वी के पूर्वार्ध में किया था। पुस्तक आगे बताती है कि Banabhatta इस रचना को पूरा होते देखने तक जीवित नहीं रहे। स्रोत के अनुसार बाद में उनके पुत्र Bhushan Bhatt ने अपने दिवंगत पिता द्वारा निर्धारित योजना के आधार पर इस उपन्यास को पूरा किया। इसलिए मुख्य पुनरावृत्ति क्रम है: Kadambari → संस्कृत romantic novel → Banabhatta द्वारा मुख्य रचना → सातवीं शताब्दी CE का पूर्वार्ध → पुत्र Bhushan Bhatt द्वारा पूर्ण। अन्य विकल्प Mrichchhakatika, Meghaduta और Gita Govinda हैं। स्रोत का अंग्रेजी प्रश्न व्याकरण की दृष्टि से अधूरा है—'Which of the following is an ancient written by Banabhatta?'—इसलिए उसे चुपचाप बदलने के बजाय सुरक्षित रखा गया है, जबकि हिंदी में उसके स्पष्ट अभिप्रेत अर्थ को प्रस्तुत किया गया है। अतः विकल्प (a), zero-based index 0, सही है।
