Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D (Sha, Shha, Sa, Ha)

विकल्प (D) सही है क्योंकि 'श, ष, स, ह' ऊष्म व्यंजन हैं; इनके उच्चारण में मुखांगों के घर्षण से ऊष्मा उत्पन्न होती है। विकल्प (A), (B) और (C) गलत हैं क्योंकि ये क्रमशः तालव्य, मूर्धन्य तथा दन्त्य स्पर्श व्यंजन हैं।

Option (D) is correct because 'Sha, Shha, Sa, Ha' are the four Ushma (fricative) consonants produced with friction generating breath heat. Options (A), (B), and (C) are palatal, retroflex, and dental stop consonants respectively.
