The correct answer is

Dhruvasena II

The Maitraka dynasty ruled over Gujarat and Saurashtra with its capital at Valabhi.

Dhruvasena II, a Maitraka ruler, attended Harshavardhana's grand religious assembly held at Prayaga (Kannauj-Prayaga assembly), as recorded by the Chinese traveller Xuanzang, and was also connected to Harsha through marriage.

Grihavarman belonged to the Maukhari dynasty, and Prabhakarvardhana was Harsha's own father, while Rudrasena II is unrelated to this event.

Hence, Dhruvasena II is the Maitraka ruler who attended Harshavardhana's assembly at Prayaga.
