Answer 1

Hint: To ensure that the new site proved propitious; he buried a person of the Meghwal caste called "Raja Ram Meghwal", who offered his services voluntarily, alive within the foundations as this was considered auspicious those days.

Complete answer:
It is located in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. It was built by King Rao Jodha in the year 1460. Considered one of the most formidable and magnificent forts of Rajasthan, the Mehrangarh fort was built by Rao Jodha in the year 1459.
The fort is spread over an area of 5 km and is built on a 125 m high hill in the outskirts of Jodhpur city. There are seven gates entering the Mehrangarh fort. It's possible to walk up to the entrance path from the Old City, in about 15 minutes.
The incline is quite steep though. If this is a concern, it's much easier to take a taxi or auto-rickshaw from the road. However, walking is recommended to fully appreciate the fort's magnificence and enormous size.
If you're feeling low on energy, take the elevator near the ticket counter to the top instead. Fateh Pol, at the back of the fort on the southwest side, is an alternative lesser-used entrance. It's close to the Old City's Navchokiya neighborhood, where most of the blue houses are.

Hence the correct answer is option (B).

Note:While it's possible to go inside Mehrangarh Fort for free, you'll need to buy a ticket to access the important attractions. Tickets are available from the counter near the fort's main entrance, Jai Pol, on the northeast side.
