To answer this question, we need to have some knowledge of the epic Mahabharata.

When Drona was insulted by Drupada, he left the kingdom of Panchala and went to Hastinapura.

Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) Hastinapura - This option is correct because Drona went to Hastinapura after being insulted by Drupada.
