D. ShivaD. शिव
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Shiva.
According to the source, Kapaleeshwarar Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva and is located in Mylapore, Chennai, in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
The source further states that the form of Shiva's consort Parvati worshipped at this temple is called Karpagambal, which it explains from Tamil as 'Goddess of the Wish-Yielding Tree'.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Kapaleeshwarar Temple — Tamil Nadu — Mylapore, Chennai — Hindu Temple — dedicated to Lord Shiva — Parvati worshipped as Karpagambal — source meaning: Goddess of the Wish-Yielding Tree.
Vishnu, Durga and Brahma are distractors.
The question uses the spelling 'Kapaleeswarar' while the explanation uses 'Kapaleeshwarar'; this source spelling variation has been preserved.
The source does not provide construction date, dynasty or architectural style in this entry.
Quick revision: Kapaleeshwarar Temple = Mylapore, Chennai = Shiva; Parvati form = Karpagambal.
Therefore option (d), Shiva, is correct.
सही उत्तर Shiva है। स्रोत के अनुसार Kapaleeshwarar Temple Lord Shiva को dedicated Hindu temple है और यह Tamil Nadu के Chennai के Mylapore में स्थित है। Source आगे बताती है कि यहां Shiva की consort Parvati के जिस form की worship होती है, उसे Karpagambal कहा जाता है, जिसका source Tamil से अर्थ 'Goddess of the Wish-Yielding Tree' बताती है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Kapaleeshwarar Temple — Tamil Nadu — Mylapore, Chennai — Lord Shiva — Parvati as Karpagambal — Goddess of the Wish-Yielding Tree according to source। Vishnu, Durga और Brahma distractors हैं। Question में 'Kapaleeswarar' और explanation में 'Kapaleeshwarar' spelling variation है, जिसे preserve किया गया है। Source construction date, dynasty या architecture की details नहीं देती। Quick revision: Kapaleeshwarar Temple = Chennai = Shiva; Parvati form = Karpagambal। इसलिए विकल्प (d), Shiva, सही उत्तर है।
