Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option B (Pingala)

छन्दशास्त्र के प्रणेता आचार्य पिंगल माने जाते हैं। इसी कारण छन्दशास्त्र को 'पिंगलशास्त्र' या केवल 'पिंगल' भी कहा जाता है। पिंगलाचार्य कृत 'छन्दसूत्र' इसका आदि ग्रन्थ है।

Acharya Pingala is revered as the father of Chhandashastra. Hence, Indian prosody is also known as Pingalashastra.
