AVhich of the following clans are included in the Agnikula Rajputs ? 1. Pratiharas 2. Chaulukyas 3. Paramaras 4. Chahamanas Select the correct answer from the code given below:

The Agnikula (fire lineage) legend, famously recorded in Chand Bardai's 'Prithviraj Raso', describes the origin of four major Rajput clans from a sacrificial fire pit (Yajna-kunda) at Mount Abu. These four clans are the Pratiharas (Pariharas), the Chaulukyas (also known as Solankis), the Paramaras (Pawars), and the Chahamanas (Chauhans). According to the myth, these warriors were created by sages like Vishvamitra or Vashistha to protect the sacred rituals from demonic interference [2]. While historical analysis suggests this legend may have been a symbolic process of 'purification' or social integration for groups of diverse origins into the Kshatriya fold, the traditional classification consistently includes all four mentioned dynasties as the core Agnikula clans. Therefore, all four options provided in the question are correct members of the Agnikula group.
