Correct
B

C

D

ध
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option A (Kha)

विकल्प (A) सही है क्योंकि 'ख' क-वर्ग का दूसरा वर्ण है; प्रत्येक स्पर्श वर्ग का दूसरा वर्ण अघोष और महाप्राण दोनों होता है। विकल्प (B) 'क' अघोष अल्पप्राण है। विकल्प (C) 'ड' सघोष अल्पप्राण है। विकल्प (D) 'ध' सघोष महाप्राण है।

Option (A) is correct because 'Kha' is the 2nd consonant of the Ka-varga; the second consonant of every stop class is both voiceless (Aghosh) and aspirated (Mahaprana). Option (B) 'Ka' is unaspirated. Option (C) 'Dda' is voiced and unaspirated. Option (D) 'Dha' is voiced and aspirated.
