Match List-I with List-II :

Choose the correct option.

Answer: A

The correct matching is (a)-(ii), (b)-(i), (c)-(iii), (d)-(iv).

Hiranyagarbha, the 'golden womb', was a ritual. The Rashtrakuta chief Dantidurga performed it, with Brahmana help, to be 'reborn' as a Kshatriya.
A prashasti is an inscription in praise of a ruler, composed by learned Brahmanas, such as the one on Samudragupta.
A pishtaq is the tall arched gateway or portal of an Indo-Islamic building.
Nastaliq is a cursive writing style of Persian calligraphy, used in Mughal manuscripts.

Every other option swaps at least one of these, for example by calling the prashasti a ritual or the pishtaq an inscription.
