The correct answer is

Kharavela

Kharavela was a ruler of the Chedi (Mahameghavahana) dynasty of Kalinga, known for the Hathigumpha inscription detailing his military campaigns.

Kanishka, Pushyamitra Shunga and Gautamiputra Satakarni ruled different dynasties (Kushan, Shunga and Satavahana respectively), not the Chedi dynasty of Kalinga.

Hence, Kharavela is the correct answer.
