Which one of the following edicts mentions the personal name of Asoka?
- Kalsi
- Rummindei
- Special Kalinga Edict
- Maski
Explanation
Option (d) is correct
- Most inscriptions of Ashoka refer to him by the titles “Devanampriya” and “Piyadarsi,” without mentioning his personal name. The Maski Minor Rock Edict inscription explicitly mentions the personal name “Asoka” along with the title Devanampriya, thereby confirming his identity.
