Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Samadhi Maharani Chand Kaur, now known as the Samadhi Gurudwara, is built in the memory of Maharani Chand Kaur, the wife of Maharaja Kharak Singh, elder son of Maharaja Ranjit Singh. Previously, there was the samadhi of Maharani Chand Kaur until 2012 with a small Gurudwara, but now with the consent of the Sikh Sangat the samadhi has been dismantled and a beautiful and big Gurudwara has been constructed along with a yatri niwas. It is situated in the center of the Jammu city near Jewel Chowk below the Gumat area. Guruparabs are celebrated with great zeal throughout the year and devotees in large number throng the place.
