The correct answer is option 3, Vishnu Sharma. The Panchatantra is a collection of Indian folktales that were compiled by Vishnu Sharma. He was a scholar and teacher in ancient India. The Panchatantra consists of five books, hence the name "Panchatantra" which means "Five Treatises" in Sanskrit. It is believed to have been written in the 3rd century BCE and is one of the oldest surviving collections of Indian fables. Valmiki, option 1, is famous for writing the epic poem Ramayana. Veda Vyasa, option 2, is an important figure in Hindu mythology who is believed to have compiled the Mahabharata. Tulsidas, option 4, is known for his work in writing the Ramcharitmanas, a retelling of the Ramayana in Hindi.
