The correct answer is A.
Baji-Prabhu held the enemy at bay, which means he prevented them from coming too near. This is evident from the fact that he was killed in the end, which suggests that the enemy was not able to defeat him.
Option B is incorrect because it does not say anything about Baji-Prabhu preventing the enemy from attacking his position.
Option C is incorrect because it does not say anything about Baji-Prabhu launching a counter attack after initial success.
Option D is incorrect because it does not say anything about Baji-Prabhu retreating initially.
Option E is incorrect because it does not say anything about Baji-Prabhu making the enemy to run away.
