The correct answer is option 3, Pulakeshin II. Ravikirti, a Jain, composed the Aihole Prashasti under the patronage of Pulakeshin II. The Aihole Prashasti is an inscription written in Sanskrit and is an important historical document from the 7th century. It was found in the Aihole region of present-day Karnataka, India. Pulakeshin II was a powerful ruler of the Chalukya dynasty and his reign is known for its cultural and architectural achievements. He patronized various scholars, poets, and artists, including Ravikirti. The Aihole Prashasti praises the accomplishments of Pulakeshin II and provides valuable insights into the political and social conditions of that time. It is considered an important source for understanding the history of the Chalukya dynasty.
