  1. In the Gupta inscription who has been called "Lichchhavi Dauhitra"?
    1. Chandragupta I
    2. Samudragupta
    3. Chandragupta II
    4. Skandgupta
Correct Option: B

In the Gupta inscription, Samudragupta has been called 'Lichchhavi Dauhitra'. There is also evidence of relationship between the early Guptas and the Lichchhavis. Chandragupta I married the Lichchhavi princess Kumaradevi, for which reason their son Samudragupta has been called Lichchhavi - duhitra. It is further indicated by some gold coins which, on the obverse, bear their figures and names and, on the reverse, the name of the Lichchhavis.
