Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The play "Anand Raghunandan", based on the Ramkatha, was written by Maharaja Vishwanath Singh of Rewa (c. 1830). It dramatises the Ram story with renamed characters and is widely regarded as one of the earliest plays in Hindi, hence Vishwanath Singh is the correct author.
