Hint:

Ślesa Alamkara creates poetic beauty through multiple meanings in a single expression.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1:
Repetition of similar sounds or syllables is Anuprāsa. \[ A \rightarrow II \]

Step 2:
Sādharmya (similarity) is the basis of Upamā Alamkara. \[ B \rightarrow III \]

Step 3:
Imposition of Upamāna is Rūpaka, while expression of multiple meanings is Ślesa. \[ C \rightarrow IV,\quad D \rightarrow I \]

Step 4:
Hence, the correct sequence is: \[ A-II,\; B-III,\; C-IV,\; D-I \] Therefore, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{\text{(1)}} \]
