Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option C(तक्षशिला)
'तक्षशिला' प्राचीन काल (विशेष रूप से 6ठी शताब्दी ई.पू. से 5वीं शताब्दी ईस्वी तक) में गांधार की राजधानी और विश्वविख्यात शिक्षा केंद्र था, किंतु हूणों के विध्वंसकारी आक्रमणों के पश्चात पूर्व-मध्य काल (800-1200 ई.) तक यह पूर्णतः नष्ट हो चुका था। जबकि नालंदा, विक्रमशिला और ओदंतपुर पूर्व-मध्य काल में जीवंत और प्रमुख शिक्षा केंद्र थे।
'Takshashila' was a world-famous center of learning in ancient times (from circa 6th century BC to 5th century AD), but it was devastated by Huna invasions and ceased to exist as an active educational hub during the early medieval period (800–1200 AD). In contrast, Nalanda, Vikramashila, and Odantapuri flourished during the early medieval era.
