Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option B (Dharanidhar (Mountain/Shesha))
'धरणीधर' राजा का पर्यायवाची शब्द नहीं है, बल्कि 'पर्वत' या शेषनाग का पर्यायवाची है। 'राजा' के पर्यायवाची शब्द हैं- भूपाल, भूपति, भूस्वामी, नृप, भूप, नरेश, महीपति आदि। [U.K. PCS (C-SAT) Exam, 2016]
'Dharanidhar' means mountain or Sheshanaga, not king. Bhoopal, bhoopati, and bhooswami are synonyms of king. [U.K. PCS Exam, 2016]
