Solution

The correct option is C $[F e (C N)_{6}]^{4 -}$
Electronic configuartion:
$F e^{2 +} - [A r] 3 d^{6}$
$C u^{2 +} - [A r] 3 d^{9}$
$T i^{3 +} - [A r] 3 d^{1}$
$N i^{2 +} - [A r] 3 d^{8}$
Since $C N^{-}$ is a strong field ligand, it will pair up the electrons in d orbital and hence $[F e (C N)_{6}]^{4 -}$ become diamagnetic.
