Correct answer: A
Gogaji, also known as Goga Veer or Jahar Veer Gogga, is worshipped in Rajasthan as “Nagaraja” (King of Serpents), similar to Tejaji. Devotees believe he has the power to protect people from snake bites and snake-related dangers. His major shrine is at Gogamedi, an important pilgrimage site.
