Answer & ExplanationAnswer: [A]
The correct answer is Seleucus. Megasthenes was a Greek ambassador of Seleucus I Nicator in the court of King Chandragupta Maurya. Seleucus I, the Hellenistic king, sent Megasthenes as an ambassador to the court of King Chandragupta Maurya in India. He visited India during the reign of Chandragupta Maurya, but his exact date of visit and duration of stay in India is uncertain. He compiled all the information regarding India in the form of a book named ‘Indika’, an account of India, which is now a lost book but survives in the form of quotations by the later writers.
