   Answer: (2) 2

   उत्तर: (2) 2

   Pairs 1 and 2 are swapped: the Rigarthadipika is Venkata Madhava's commentary on the Rigveda, while the Kataka is Madhava Yogi's commentary on the Ramayana. Damayanti-Katha (Nala-Champu) is by Trivikrama Bhatta and Yashastilaka Champu by the Jain author Somadeva Suri, so only pairs 3 and 4 are correct.
