Correct Answer: Kailash (Ashtapad)
Subject: history
Explanation: Rishabhdev (also called Adinath), the 1st Tirthankara of Jainism, is believed to have attained Nirvana (Moksha) at Mount Kailash, also referred to as 'Ashtapad' in Jain tradition. He is also mentioned in Hindu texts and is considered by some scholars to be one of the earliest religious figures in Indian history. Important Nirvana sites: Pawapuri (Mahavira, 24th Tirthankara), Girnar (Neminatha, 22nd Tirthankara), Shikharji/Parasnath Hill (20 Tirthankaras attained Nirvana here, including Parshvanatha, 23rd Tirthankara — it is the most sacred Jain pilgrimage site).
