Solution

The correct option is C Ayodhya
The Babri Masjid was a 16th century mosque in Ayodhya. It was built by Mir Baqi, the Mughal emperor Babur’s General. Some Hindus believed that it was built by demolishing a temple of Lord Rama, and that it was his birthplace. The custodians of the Babri Masjid denied their claim, saying that it was a place of worship for Muslims.
