Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 4.

Option 1: refused

Option 2: chased

Option 3: issued

Option 4: denied

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: issued


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The word issued is appropriate in this context because it suggests that the inscription was officially released or authorised by Satavahana King Vijaya. It implies that the king played a role in making the inscription in a public or official way.

The meanings of other words are:

  • Refused: This means to indicate an unwillingness to do, accept, give, or allow something.
  • Chased: This means to follow rapidly in order to catch or overtake; to pursue.
  • Denied: This means to state that something declared or believed to be true is not true.

Therefore, the complete sentence would be: "The inscription is in Sanskrit and in Brahmi characters and was issued by Satavahana King Vijaya in 207 A.D."
