The correct answer is option 1: Chandragupta Maurya.

During the 4th century BC, the Greeks under the leadership of Alexander the Great invaded and conquered parts of northern India. However, after Alexander`s death, his empire fragmented, and Chandragupta Maurya established the Maurya Empire in India. Chandragupta Maurya succeeded in driving out the Greeks from the Indian subcontinent, specifically from the northwestern parts, through military campaigns. He was known for his strategic alliances, military prowess, and efficient administration, which allowed him to expand his empire and establish his rule. Chandragupta Maurya`s victory over the Greeks marked the end of their influence in India and laid the foundation for one of the largest and most powerful empires in Indian history.
