Solution(By Examveda Team)

The construction of the five rathas is traced back to the 7th century during the reign of King Mahendravarman I from 600–630 CE and his son Narasimhavarman I from 630–668 AD of the Pallava dynasty. Construction work of the structures stopped after the demise of Narasimhavarman I in 668 AD.
