To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) Kujala Kadphises - This option is incorrect because Kujala Kadphises was a Kushan emperor who ruled in the 1st century CE, while the apostle St. Thomas is believed to have visited India in the 1st century CE. Therefore, Kujala Kadphises' reign does not align with St. Thomas' visit to India.
Option B) Gondophernes - This option is correct because Gondophernes, also known as Gondophares, was a Parthian king who ruled in the 1st century CE. It is believed that St. Thomas visited India during the reign of Gondophernes, making this option the correct answer.
Option C) Antialkidas - This option is incorrect because Antialkidas was a Greco-Bactrian king who ruled in the 2nd century BCE. His reign does not align with St. Thomas' visit to India in the 1st century CE.
Option D) Wema Kadphises - This option is incorrect because Wema Kadphises was a Kushan emperor who ruled in the 1st century CE. While his reign aligns with the time period of St. Thomas' visit to India, historical records do not indicate that St. Thomas went to India during his reign.
The correct answer is B) Gondophernes. This option is correct because Gondophernes was the ruler during the time when St. Thomas is believed to have preached Christianity in India.
