Solution

The correct option is C Amrit
Guru Gobind Singh founded the Sikh warrior community called Khalsa in 1699 and introduced the Five Ks, the five articles of faith that Khalsa Sikhs wear at all times. The five Ks were Kesh - uncut hair, Kangha - a wooden comb, Kara - an iron or steel bracelet worn on the wrist, Kirpan - a sword or dagger, Kacchera - short breeches. For entering into the Khalsa Panth, every one had to drink amrit. It was believed that those who had taken the amrit had become extra brave and extra courageous.
