This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2025 Paper 2 Sociology Question Paper (15-Jun-2025)
The correct answer is

Kapil

Kapil option is correct.

Sankhya (Samkhya) is one of the six classical orthodox (astika) schools of Indian philosophy (shad-darshanas). It is traditionally regarded as the oldest of the six systems and offers a dualistic account of reality built on two eternal principles — Purusha (pure consciousness) and Prakriti (primordial matter with its three gunas: sattva, rajas, tamas). Liberation (kaivalya) follows from discriminative knowledge (viveka) between the two.

Every standard history of Indian philosophy (Radhakrishnan, Hiriyanna, Dasgupta) traces the Samkhya darshana to the sage Kapila (Maharshi Kapil), who is credited with the original doctrine later systematised by Ishvarakrishna in the Samkhya-karika. The stem asks for the ORIGINAL proponent of the darshana, which is Kapil.

Kanad founded the Vaisheshika school (atomic pluralism), Patanjali codified the Yoga darshana in the Yoga-sutras, and Vyas is associated with the Vedanta tradition (Brahma-sutras) — none of them originated Sankhya.
