Solution

The correct option is C Ashoka's respect for earlier Buddhas
Terai pillar is located in Nigali Sagar and Rummindei (birth place of Buddha). The inscriptions explain Ashoka’s respect for earlier Buddhas. Ashokan pillars are broad at base and taper towards the top but this one is of uniform girth from top to bottom and is without the bell shaped top.
