Solution
The correct option is A \N Chiral centre is the one which has four different valancy or groups.
Carbon 1 and 3 are not chiral because of two valancies are same except Cl and H.
Carbon 2 and 4 are not chiral beacuse they have two H and other group two CHCl group thus they are also not chiral centre.
