   Show answer

   Answer: (2) Prola Raja I

   సమాధానం: (2) మొదటి ప్రోలరాజు

   The official key credits the Siddheshwara temple at Hanumakonda to the early Kakatiya chief Prola Raja (option 2); Rudradeva I is the tempting option because he built the Thousand Pillar (Rudreshwara) temple there in 1163. Several Telangana history texts instead credit the temple to Prola II, who is not among the options, and the final key also gave the mark to candidates who left this question blank. (Official final key; some sources differ.) (TSLPRB's final key also gave the mark to candidates who left this question unanswered.)
