Question
Which one of the following Chola rulers had persecuted Ramanuja and ousted him from his Kingdom?
Options:
A .  Adhirajendra
B .  Kulothunga I
C .  Kulothunga II
D .  Rajaraja I
Answer: Option B
Answer: (b)
Kulothunga I Chola ruler had persecuted Ramanuja and ousted him from his kingdom. Ramanuja was the contemporary of Kulothunga II. It is Kulothunga II who banished Ramanuja from Tamil country and the latter had to seek refuge in Melkote, Karnataka.
Hence even bringing Ramunaja into Athirajendra’s death would cause more confusion. Till Kulothunga II, all the Chola kings and emperors supported all the religions equally although they were staunch Saivites.
