Solution

The correct option is A Ranthambhor
Ranthambhor ruler Hammirdeva had given shelter to Mongol rebels and refused to hand them over to Alauddin. The later thus attacked Ranthambhor in 1301 and the Rajputs lost. The Rajput women committed the fearful Jauhar ceremony while the Rajput men died fighting on the battle field.
