The correct answer is: a) Madurai.
The Pandyas were a Tamil dynasty that ruled over southern India from the 3rd century BCE to the 13th century CE. They were one of the three major dynasties of southern India, along with the Cholas and the Cheras.
The Pandyas revived their power and established their second empire in the 9th century CE. Their capital was at Madurai, which is now a city in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
The Pandyas were a powerful and prosperous dynasty. They were patrons of art, literature, and architecture. They built many temples and palaces, and their kingdom was known for its wealth and splendor.
The Pandyas were eventually overthrown by the Cholas in the 13th century CE. However, their legacy continues to this day, and they are still remembered as one of the great dynasties of southern India.
The other options are incorrect because they were not the capital of the Pandyas during their second empire.
- Option b, Korkai, was the capital of the Pandyas during their first empire.
- Option c, Kanchipuram, was the capital of the Pallavas, another major dynasty of southern India.
- Option d, Uraiyur, was a major city in the Pandya kingdom, but it was not the capital.
