चौ-पाया
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option C (Bada-sa (with hyphen))

'बड़ा-सा' शुद्ध शब्द है। सा/सी/से से पूर्व योजक चिह्न (-) का प्रयोग किया जाता है। शेष शब्दों के शुद्ध रूप क्रमशः गंगाजल, बेबुनियाद, चौपाया हैं।

'बड़ा-सा' is correct because a hyphen is used before the particle 'सा'. Words like 'गंगाजल', 'बेबुनियाद', and 'चौपाया' are written as single compound words without hyphens.
