1 and 2 Only

Why?

The correct answer is option 1 i.e 1 and 2 Only . Kamarupa , an early state during the Classical period on the Indian subcontinent was the first historical kingdom of Assam. Though Kamarupa existed from 350 CE to 1140 CE, Davaka was absorbed by Kamarupa in the 5th century CE. The term Dogra is thought to derive from Durgara , the name of a kingdom mentioned in an eleventh-century copper-plate inscription in Chamba. The Dogra dynasty was a Dogra Rajput Hindu dynasty that formed the royal house of Jammu and Kashmir . The founder of the dynasty, Gulab Singh, was an influential noble in the court of Maharaja Ranjit Singh of Lahore, while his brother Dhian Singh served as the prime minister of the Sikh empire.
