Question

Accepted Answer

#### Explanation

- The Tripartite Struggle was a prolonged conflict for control of Kannauj in northern India during the $8^{th}$–$10^{th}$ centuries.
- The three main contestants were the Gurjara-Pratihara (Pratihara) of western India, the Rashtrakutas of the Deccan, and the Palas of Bengal.
- This rivalry for supremacy over Kannauj is classically known as the "Tripartite Struggle," so option (1) is correct.
- The other listed groups (Solanki/Parmar/Chandella, Khalji/Tughlaq/Lodhi, Pallava/Pandya/Chola) were involved in different regions and periods and not in this three-way contest for Kannauj.
