Q. Who was the last Hindu king ruled North India?

(a) Pulakesi

(b) Kanishka

(c) Chandradeva

(d) Harsha

Ans: (d) Harsha

Explanation: The correct answer is (d) Harsha.

Harsha, also known as Harshavardhana, was the last Hindu king to rule over a significant part of North India. He ruled from 606 CE to 647 CE as the Emperor of the Vardhana dynasty. Harsha’s empire covered a large portion of present-day Northern and Eastern India.

During his reign, Harsha was known for his patronage of the arts and literature. He was also a follower of Buddhism but displayed religious tolerance and supported various religious traditions in his empire.

Pulakesi was a famous ruler of the Chalukya dynasty in South India during the 7th century. Kanishka was an important Kushan emperor who ruled a vast empire that included parts of present-day Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Northern India from the 1st century CE. Chandradeva is not a well-known historical figure, and there is no prominent reference to a North Indian king with that name.
