Which Chola ruler had conquered the northern part of Sri Lanka and made it a province of his empire?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
Taking advantage of a civil war which had caused the Sinhalese monarch Mahinda V to flee to the south-east province of Anuradhapura known as Ruhuna, Raja Raja Chola invaded Anuradhapura sometime between 991 and 993 AD and conquered the northern part of the country and incorporated it into his kingdom as a province.
