Correct Answerसही उत्तर

D. Mahishasura Mardini TempleD. महिषासुर मर्दिनी मंदिर

Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer is Mahishasura Mardini Temple.
According to the source, Chaiturgarh, also called Lafagarh, is a fort located about 19 kilometres from Pali in Katghora tehsil of Korba district, Chhattisgarh, on the Korba–Bilaspur road.
The book states that it is an Archaeological Survey of India protected monument and that the famous Mahishasur Mardini Temple is situated there.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Chaiturgarh
Lafagarh Fort — Korba District — Chhattisgarh — about 19 km from Pali — Katghora Tehsil — Korba–Bilaspur Road — ASI protected monument — Mahishasur
Mahishasura Mardini Temple.
Adi Shankaracharya Temple, Varaha Murthy Temple and Yudhistira Temple are distractors.
The source varies between 'Mahishasura Mardini' in the option and 'Mahishasur Mardini' in the explanation; this variation has been preserved rather than silently changed.
Quick revision: Chaiturgarh Fort, Korba → Mahishasura Mardini Temple.
Therefore option (d) is correct.

सही उत्तर Mahishasura Mardini Temple है। स्रोत के अनुसार Chaiturgarh, जिसे Lafagarh भी कहा गया है, Chhattisgarh के Korba district में Katghora tehsil के Pali से लगभग 19 kilometres दूर Korba–Bilaspur road पर स्थित fort है। Book इसे Archaeological Survey of India protected monument बताती है और कहती है कि famous Mahishasur Mardini Temple यहीं स्थित है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Chaiturgarh/Lafagarh Fort — Korba — Chhattisgarh — Pali से लगभग 19 km — Katghora Tehsil — Korba–Bilaspur Road — ASI Protected Monument — Mahishasur/Mahishasura Mardini Temple। Adi Shankaracharya, Varaha Murthy और Yudhistira Temple distractors हैं। Option और explanation की spelling variation preserve की गई है। Quick revision: Chaiturgarh Fort, Korba = Mahishasura Mardini Temple। इसलिए विकल्प (d) सही उत्तर है।
