Correct Answer: Option A(रायगढ़)
शिवाजी ने 1674 ई. में अपने राज्याभिषेक के बाद रायगढ़ (पूर्व नाम रायरी) को मराठा स्वराज्य की राजधानी बनाया। रायगढ़ को 'जिब्राल्टर ऑफ द ईस्ट' भी कहा जाता है।
Following his formal coronation in 1674 CE, Shivaji established Raigad (formerly Rairi) as the sovereign capital of the Maratha kingdom. Raigad was famously termed the 'Gibraltar of the East'.
