Explanation
The Gwalior prashasti is the Sanskrit eulogy recording the genealogy and achievements of the Gurjara-Pratihara king Mihira Bhoja (c. 836-885 CE), and it is attributed to his court poet Baladitya. Nagabhata, Vatsaraja and Kakkuka were Pratihara rulers, not the composer of this inscription. (Cross-checked against testbook's solved page for this paper; prepp and abhipedia instead name Kakkuka.)
