Correct Answer: Both I and II


Solution : The correct answer is Both I and II .

Nagara refers to the style of temple architecture that gained popularity in northern India. The Nagara style was originally recorded as being purchased by the Gupta Dynasty (3rd century CE to 543 CE), and it persisted in popularity throughout northern India until the Muslim conquests of the 13th century CE.

The Pallavas ascended to power in the fourth century AD, with Mahendravarman I (advert 571-630) as their first ruler. The Dravidian architecture took its cues from the Pallavas.
