Solution

The correct option is D
Phamsana
Explanation: Stupas consist of a cylindrical drum with a circular Anda with a Harmika and a Chhatra on the top.

Phamsana: It is one of the three types of Shikhara, the other two being Latina or Rekha-prasad and Valabhi. They had a broader base and were shorter in height than the Latina ones. They slope upwards on a straight line.
