Solution(By Examveda Team)

Banabhatta and Vyas are writers of Sanskrit literature. Baṇabhatta was a 7th century Sanskrit prose writer and poet of India. He was the Asthana Kavi in the court of King Harsha Vardhana, who reigned c. 606 - 647 CE in north India first from Sthanvishvara (Thanesar), and later Kannauj. Bana's principal works include a biography of Harsha, the Harshacharita (Deeds of Harsha), and one of the world's earliest novels, Kadambari. Baṇa died before finishing the novel and it was completed by his son Bhusanabhatta. Both these works are noted texts of Sanskrit literature. Krishna Dvaipayana, better known as Vyasa or Vedavyasa, is a central and revered sage portrayed in most Hindu traditions. He is traditionally regarded as the author of the Hindu epic Mahabharata. He is also regarded by many Hindus as the compiler of a number of significant scriptures.
