Who among the following had introduced the Sattriya dance?

  • A.Vyasa
  • B.Madhavacharya
  • C.Bhasa
  • D.Sankaradeva

Answer: D

Sankaradeva, the 15th to 16th century Assamese saint and reformer, introduced Sattriya, using it in his Ankiya Nat plays performed in the sattras (Vaishnava monasteries) of Assam. It was given classical status by the Sangeet Natak Akademi in 2000.

Vyasa, Madhavacharya and Bhasa are not linked with its origin: Vyasa is the traditional author of the Mahabharata, Madhavacharya was a Dvaita philosopher, and Bhasa was a Sanskrit playwright.
