Correct Answer: (d) 1, 3, 4 and 5

Khajuraho is situated in the Bundelkhand region of Madhya Pradesh, and Tirupati is a major city of the Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh, so pairs 2 and 5 are correctly matched. Bodhgaya belongs to the Magadh region of Bihar (not Baghelkhand); Shirdi is in Ahmednagar district of western Maharashtra (not Vidarbha); Nashik is in northern/western Maharashtra (not the Malwa plateau). Therefore only pairs 2 and 5 are correct (option c). ([britannica.com](https://www.britannica.com/place/Khajuraho?utm_source=openai))
