Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1:
Kha is a guttural consonant pronounced from the throat. \[ A \rightarrow II \]

Step 2:
Ja is palatal and Dha is cerebral (Mūrdhanya). \[ B \rightarrow III,\quad C \rightarrow IV \]

Step 3:
Pha is a bi-labial consonant. \[ D \rightarrow I \]

Hence, the correct sequence is: \[ A-II,\; B-III,\; C-IV,\; D-I \] Therefore, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{\text{(2)}} \]
