Solution

The correct option is B Ajmer
Chauhans were the Rajput kings who ruled parts of northern India in the medieval period. They were the feudatories of the Gurjar-Pratiharas who in the Battle of Rajasthan assisted Nagabhatta I to defeat and protect the borders from the Arab Invasions. Manik Rai, the founder of the Chauhan dynasty, belonged to Ajmer.
