Explanation

Alexander the Great invaded India in 326 B.C., during his campaign to expand his empire eastward. He reached the Indus River and fought the Battle of the Hydaspes against King Porus. The year 326 A.D. would be nearly 700 years later, and 526 B.C. is two centuries too early. There is also a typo in option D (B.D. instead of B.C.).
