Which of the following statements related to Tamil region is wrong?

  • A.Sangam poems mention the Muvendar.
  • B.Muvendar is a Tamil word meaning three chiefs used for heads of three ruling families.
  • C.The three ruling families were the Cholas, Cheras and Pandyas.
  • D.Each of the three chiefs had three centres of power.

Answer: D

The wrong statement is Each of the three chiefs had three centres of power.

The Sangam poems mention the muvendar, a Tamil word meaning three chiefs, used for the heads of the three ruling families: the Cholas, the Cheras and the Pandyas. Each of these chiefs had two centres of power, one inland and one on the coast, not three.

The other three statements are correct as given: the Sangam poems do mention the muvendar, the word does mean three chiefs, and the three families are correctly named.
