B
Lothal - S.R. Rao
लोथल - एस.आर. राव
C
Surkotada - J.P. Joshi

D
Dholavira - B.K. Thapar
धौलावीरा - बी.के. थापड़
Correct
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D (Dholavira - B.K. Thapar)

हड़प्पा का उत्खनन दयाराम साहनी, लोथल का उत्खनन एस.आर. राव तथा सुरकोटडा का उत्खनन जे.पी. जोशी ने कराया था, जबकि धौलावीरा का उत्खनन बी. के. थापड़ ने नहीं, बल्कि आर.एस. बिष्ट ने कराया था। अतः विकल्प (d) सुमेलित नहीं है।

Harappa was excavated by Daya Ram Sahni, Lothal by S.R. Rao and Surkotada by J.P. Joshi. But Dholavira was not excavated by B.K. Thapar. Instead, it was excavated by R.S. Bisht. Therefore, option (d) is not correctly matched.
