Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
To commemorate his celebrated northern campaign to the Ganges, Rajendra assumed the title of Gangaikonda Chola and had the Siva Temple Gangakkondacholeswaram built. Soon after, he moved the capital from Thanjavur to Gangaikondacholapuram. Rajendra probably founded the city of Gangaikondacholapuram before his 17th year. Most of the Chola kings who succeeded Rajendra had been crowned in Gangakkondacholeswaram. They retained it as their capital, reoriented and trained the efficient Chola army.
