The correct answer is: A) Goddess Gauri.
Bathukamma is a nine-day festival celebrated by the Telugu people of India, especially in the Telangana and Andhra Pradesh states. It is a harvest festival that celebrates the goddess Gauri, who is the consort of Lord Shiva. The festival is marked by the making of elaborate flower arrangements called bathukammas, which are then offered to the goddess. Bathukammas are made from a variety of flowers, including marigolds, roses, and jasmine. They are often decorated with mirrors, beads, and other ornaments. The festival culminates in a grand procession in which the bathukammas are carried through the streets.
Option B is incorrect because the harvest season is not a specific deity.
Option C is incorrect because Lord Shiva is not the main deity of the Bathukamma festival.
Option D is incorrect because the Bathukamma festival is not a celebration of victory over evil.
