Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Kakatiya

  • Rudrama Devi, also Maharani Rudramma Devi, was a queen of the Kakatiya dynasty in the Deccan Plateau from 1263 to 1289 (or 1295) until her death.
  • She was one of the few women to hold a monarchy in India, and she did so by projecting a masculine persona.
