Correct
B

C

ड
D
Gha
घ
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option A (Kha)

प्रत्येक वर्ग का द्वितीय वर्ण अघोष और महाप्राण दोनों होता है। 'ख' क-वर्ग का द्वितीय वर्ण है, अतः यह 'अघोष-महाप्राण' है। विकल्प B ('क') अघोष-अल्पप्राण है। विकल्प C ('ड') सघोष-अल्पप्राण है। विकल्प D ('घ') सघोष-महाप्राण है।

The second consonant of every stop class is both voiceless (Aghosh) and aspirated (Mahaprana). 'ख' is the 2nd consonant of Ka-varga, making it Aghosh-Mahaprana. Option B ('क') is Aghosh-Alpaprana. Option C ('ड') is Saghosh-Alpaprana. Option D ('घ') is Saghosh-Mahaprana.
