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

परंपरानुसार भागवत धर्म के प्रवर्तक वृष्णि (सात्वत) वंशी कृष्ण थे, जिन्हें वसुदेव का पुत्र होने के कारण वासुदेव कृष्ण कहा जाता है। वे मूलतः मथुरा के निवासी थे। छांदोग्य उपनिषद में उन्हें देवकी-पुत्र तथा घोर अंगिरस का शिष्य बताया गया है।

Traditionally, the originator of the Bhagavata religion was Vrishni (Satvat) descendant, Lord Krishna who is also known as Vasudeva. He was basically from Mathura. He has been described as the son of Devaki and the disciple of Ghor Angirasa in the Chhandogya Upanishad.
