RPF SI 2018 Question Paper PDF (10-Jan-2019) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Gopal

The Pala Empire of Bengal was founded by Gopala around 750 CE. He was chosen as king by the local chiefs to end the anarchy (matsyanyaya) in Bengal.

His successors Dharmapala and Devapala expanded the empire, and the Palas were great patrons of Buddhism, founding Vikramashila and supporting Nalanda.

Dhruva was a Rashtrakuta king, Mahendrapala was a Gurjara-Pratihara ruler, and Mahipala I was a later Pala king who revived the dynasty, not its founder.

Hence, the founder of the Pala Empire was Gopal.
