A
Correct answer
Explanation
Ashwatthama (the person, not the elephant) was the son of Dronacharya (also written as Drona), the royal preceptor to both the Pandavas and Kauravas in the Mahabharata. His mother was Kripi. This makes option A (Dronachariya - a variant spelling of Dronacharya) correct.
