Solution

The correct option is D Literature - Ajanta
Nalanda, Takshshila, Ujjain, Valabhi were some of the prominent centres of higher education. Each of these centres was dedicated to a particular field like astronomy in Ujjain and Medicine in Takshshila. Students who wanted to learn Buddhist teachings had institutions like the Sarnath University. Students interested in art, architecture and painting enrolled at Ajanta, not literature.
