Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option C(वाकाटक)
अजंता की गुफाओं का विकास मुख्य रूप से दो चरणों में हुआ। आरंभिक चरण (हीनयान) सातवाहन काल में तथा दूसरा एवं सबसे वैभवशाली चरण (महायान) वाकाटक राजवंश के राजा हरिषेण और उनके सामंतों व मंत्रियों (जैसे वराहदेव) के संरक्षण में हुआ।
The caves of Ajanta flourished in two distinct phases: an early Hinayana phase under the Satavahanas, and a magnificent later Mahayana phase under the patronage of the Vakataka dynasty, particularly during the reign of King Harishena and his ministers (such as Varahadeva).
