Jayadeva, composer of the Gita Govinda adorned the court of Lakshmanasena who was the last Hindu ruler of: A. Oddisa B. Bihar C. Bengal D. Gujrat

Oddisa
Bihar
Bengal
Gujrat

The correct answer is: A. Oddisa.

Jayadeva was a 12th-century Indian poet and composer who wrote the Gita Govinda, a Sanskrit poem about the love between Krishna and Radha. He is believed to have lived in the court of Lakshmanasena, the last Hindu ruler of Odisha.

Bihar was ruled by the Pala dynasty during the 12th century. The Palas were a Buddhist dynasty, and it is unlikely that they would have supported a Hindu poet like Jayadeva.

Bengal was ruled by the Sena dynasty during the 12th century. The Senas were a Hindu dynasty, but they were not as tolerant of other religions as the Palas. It is possible that Jayadeva could have lived in Bengal, but it is more likely that he lived in Odisha.

Gujarat was ruled by the Chaulukya dynasty during the 12th century. The Chaulukyas were a Hindu dynasty, but they were not as tolerant of other religions as the Palas or the Senas. It is very unlikely that Jayadeva could have lived in Gujarat.

In conclusion, the correct answer is: A. Oddisa.
