Solution

The correct option is C Vaishya
Brahmins were the ones who learnt Rig Veda and performed ceremonies. Kshatriyas were the ruling class and fought wars while Vaishyas were the working class which included professions like farming and trading. Shudras perfomed menial jobs. So as per the nature of each class Kumaram would have joined Vaishyas.
