The correct answer is Gujarat.
According to the source, Somnath Temple is located at Prabhas Patan near Veraval in Saurashtra on the western coast of Gujarat.
The book states that it is believed to be the first among the twelve Jyotirlinga shrines of Shiva and describes it as an important pilgrimage and tourist spot of Gujarat.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Somnath Temple — Gujarat — Western Coast — Prabhas Patan — near Veraval — Saurashtra — believed to be first among Twelve Jyotirlinga Shrines of Shiva — important pilgrimage and tourist spot.
Maharashtra, Goa and Tamil Nadu are distractors.
The belief regarding its position among the twelve Jyotirlingas is preserved as the source frames it.
The source does not provide reconstruction history, dynasties or dates in this entry.
Quick revision: Somnath = Gujarat = Prabhas Patan near Veraval = Jyotirlinga.
