Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: a) Strategic location and defense systems.
Kondapalli Fort is a historical fortification located in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh, India. It was built in the 13th century by the Kakatiya dynasty and later occupied by the Qutb Shahi dynasty, the Mughal Empire, and the Nizam of Hyderabad. The fort is known for its strategic location and defense systems. It is situated on a hilltop overlooking the Krishna River and is surrounded by a moat. The fort has seven gates, each of which is protected by a strong wall and a bastion. The fort also has a number of water tanks and wells, which were used to supply water to the garrison during times of siege.
The other options are incorrect because:
- b) Ornate palaces and temples: The Kondapalli Fort does not have any ornate palaces or temples.
- c) Rock-cut caves and sculptures: The Kondapalli Fort does not have any rock-cut caves or sculptures.
- d) Water management systems: The Kondapalli Fort does have water management systems, but these are not its most notable feature.
