A Champa
B Java
C Kambuja
D Pagan on Irawadi

Answer & Explanation

Answer: [A]

Sri Jaya Indravarman Maharajadhiraja belonged to the Bhrigu family and was the ruler of the Champa kingdom. Champa was an ancient Indianized kingdom that existed in what is now modern-day Vietnam. The rulers of Champa, including Sri Jaya Indravarman Maharajadhiraja, played significant roles in the political and cultural history of the region. The Champa kingdom had close connections with Indian culture, including influences from Hinduism and Buddhism, and was known for its art, architecture, and trade. Therefore, Sri Jaya Indravarman Maharajadhiraja was the ruler of Champa, not Java, Kambuja, or Pagan on Irawadi.
