Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: Gangeyadev

Explanation: The correct answer is C. Gangeyadev. The Parmar dynasty was a prominent Rajput dynasty that ruled over Malwa, with its capital at Dhar (in present-day Madhya Pradesh). Gangeyadev was not a Parmar ruler. He belonged to the Kalachuri dynasty (also called the Chedi dynasty), which ruled over Tripuri (near Jabalpur in present-day Madhya Pradesh).
