The correct option is C Masoor (Lentil)
In India, masoor or lentil is planted in the winter season in the months of November-December and thus is referred as Rabi crop. Masoor or lentil is a bushy, annual shrub plant that is popular for its lens shaped seeds. The lentil (Lens culinaris) is an edible pulse of the legume family. Bihar and Uttar Pradesh are the major growing areas for lentil.
