Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer is West Bengal.
According to the source, Bishnupur is a town in the eastern Indian state of West Bengal and is particularly known for its Hindu temples constructed from local terracotta.
The book gives Rasmancha as an example and describes it as pyramid-shaped and established around 1600.
It also mentions the ornate carvings on the walls of Jor Bangla Temple and states that Madan Mohan Temple is decorated with scenes from Hindu legends, including the Mahabharata.
The source further says that Bishnupur Museum displays manuscripts and ancient sculptures.
Therefore the source-supported revision chain is: Bishnupur — West Bengal — Terracotta Hindu Temples — Rasmancha — Jor Bangla Temple — Madan Mohan Temple — Mahabharata scenes — Bishnupur Museum.
Rajasthan, Gujarat and Assam are distractors.
Quick revision: Bishnupur = West Bengal = Famous Terracotta Temples.
Therefore option (c) is correct.

सही उत्तर West Bengal है। स्रोत के अनुसार Bishnupur eastern India के West Bengal राज्य का एक town है और यह local terracotta से बने Hindu temples के लिए प्रसिद्ध है। Book Rasmancha का example देती है, जिसे pyramid-shaped structure बताया गया है और लगभग 1600 में established कहा गया है। Source Jor Bangla Temple की walls पर ornate carvings का उल्लेख करती है और Madan Mohan Temple को Hindu legends, including Mahabharata, के scenes से decorated बताती है। Bishnupur Museum में manuscripts और ancient sculptures display होने की बात भी source में दी गई है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Bishnupur — West Bengal — Terracotta Hindu Temples — Rasmancha — Jor Bangla Temple — Madan Mohan Temple — Mahabharata Scenes — Bishnupur Museum। Rajasthan, Gujarat और Assam distractors हैं। Quick revision: Bishnupur = West Bengal = Terracotta Temples। इसलिए विकल्प (c) सही उत्तर है।
