Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
The 84 Pillared Cenotaph (Chaurasi Khambon ki Chhatri) was built in 1683 CE by Rao Raja Anirudh Singh, the ruler of Bundi. He constructed it in memory of his foster brother, Deva.
This monument is famous for:
its 84 intricately carved pillars,
beautiful Rajput architectural style, and
being one of the important historical monuments of Bundi, Rajasthan.
Since Rao Raja Anirudh Singh commissioned its construction, he is the correct answer.
