Solution

The correct option is D Raigarh
In 1674, Shivaji crowned himself formally at Raigarh. It placed him on a pedestal much higher than any of the Maratha chiefs, some of whom had continued to look upon him as an upstart. To strengthen his social position further, Shivaji married into some of the leading old Maratha families.
