Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option C(गुप्त)
गुप्त काल को भारतीय इतिहास का 'स्वर्ण युग' (Golden Age) या 'क्लासिकल युग' कहा जाता है। इस काल में राजनीतिक एकता, सुदृढ़ प्रशासनिक व्यवस्था, आर्थिक समृद्धि, धार्मिक सहिष्णुता, तथा संस्कृत साहित्य, गणित, खगोलशास्त्र, चित्रकला (अजंता) और वास्तुकला (दशावतार मंदिर) का अभूतपूर्व चरमोत्कर्ष हुआ।
The Gupta era is universally termed the 'Golden Age' or 'Classical Age' of ancient India due to the sublime flourishment of Sanskrit literature (Kalidasa), astronomical sciences (Aryabhata, Varahamihira), structural temple architecture (Deogarh), and mural painting (Ajanta).
