Correct Answer: Option B (Pravrajit (One who has taken renunciation / monasticism))
'वह व्यक्ति जिसने संन्यास ग्रहण किया हो' के लिए उचित एक शब्द 'प्रव्रजित' है। संन्यास का व्रत धारण करने वाला 'संन्यासी' भी कहलाता है।
The appropriate term for 'a person who has taken monastic vows / renounced worldly life' is 'Pravrajit'. One who observes the vow of sannyasa is called 'Sannyasi'.
