Correct:
B
Explanation
In Jainism, out of the 24 Tirthankaras, 20 attained Nirvana at Sammed Shikharji (Parashnath Hill, Jharkhand). However, four Tirthankaras attained salvation at different locations:
- Rishabhanath (1st): Attained Nirvana at Ashtapad (Mount Kailash).
- Vasupujya (12th): Attained Nirvana at Champapuri (Bihar).
- Neminath (22nd): Attained Nirvana at Urjayanta (Mount Girnar, Gujarat).
- Mahavira (24th): Attained Nirvana at Pavapuri (Bihar).
Therefore, the pair Vasupujya - Sammedashikhar is NOT correctly matched because Vasupujya attained Nirvana at Champapuri, not Sammed Shikharji.
