General KnowledgeHistory of India
- ALakhmirwala, Banawali, Rakhigarhi, Bhirrana
- BRakhigarhi, Banawali, Bhirrana, Lakhmirwala
- CBanawali, Rakhigarhi, Lakhmirwala, Bhirrana
- DRakhigarhi, Bhirrana, Banawali, Lakhmirwala
Explanation
As keyed, the intended north-to-south order is Lakhmirwala (Punjab), Banawali, Rakhigarhi, Bhirrana (Haryana) - option (A). Caveat: by modern coordinates Bhirrana lies slightly north of Rakhigarhi, so the question's ordering is geographically debatable and no option is exact; (A) is retained as the clearly intended answer.
