SELECT CORRECT OPTION:

C

D

प्रतीप
Correct
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D (Prateepa)

जहाँ प्रसिद्ध उपमान (देवदार) को उपमेय और उपमेय (तपस्वी) को उपमान बना दिया जाए, वहाँ प्रतीप अलंकार (उपमा का उल्टा) होता है।

Where the standard Upamana (tall deodar trees) is compared to the ascetic (Upameya) instead of vice versa, it is Prateepa Alankara.
