Ashoka.<\/p>\n<p>Ashoka the Great was the third emperor of the Mauryan Empire, reigning from 272 to 232 BCE.

These missionaries were responsible for spreading Buddhism and Ashoka&#8217;s message of peace and non-violence.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect. Chandragupta was the founder of the Mauryan Empire, but he did not send missionaries to Ladakh. Bindusara was Chandragupta&#8217;s son and Ashoka&#8217;s father, but he also did not send missionaries to Ladakh. Samprati was Ashoka&#8217;s grandson, but he was not emperor during the time that Buddhism was first introduced to Ladakh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Ashoka&#8221;
