 (c) Madhvacharya

(d) Ramanujacharya

Ans: (b) Nimbarakacharya

Explanation: The philosopher who believed in the theory of Bhedabhed (simultaneous difference and non-difference) is (b) Nimbarakacharya. Nimbarakacharya, also known as Nimbarka, was a 13th-century Vaishnava philosopher and theologian. He founded the Nimbarka Sampradaya, a Vaishnava tradition that emphasizes the doctrine of “Dvaitadvaita” or “Bhedabhed.” According to this philosophy, the individual soul (jiva) and the supreme soul (Brahman) are simultaneously different and non-different. The teachings of Nimbarkacharya are primarily based on the interpretation and commentary of the Vedanta Sutras, Upanishads, and the Bhagavad Gita.
