From which of the following places in Uttarakhand, did we find ancient Rock-Edicts?

Pandukeshwar
Palethi
Kalsi
Taleshwar

The correct answer is (c). Kalsi.

Kalsi is a town and a nagar panchayat in Dehradun district in the Indian state of Uttarakhand. It is located on the banks of the Yamuna River, about 20 km from Dehradun. The town is known for its ancient rock edicts, which were inscribed by the Mauryan emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BCE. The edicts are written in Brahmi script and are inscribed on a large rock face near the town. They are a valuable source of information about the Mauryan Empire and its policies.

The other options are incorrect. Pandukeshwar is a village in Rudraprayag district in Uttarakhand. Palethi is a village in Tehri Garhwal district in Uttarakhand. Taleshwar is a village in Chamoli district in Uttarakhand. None of these villages have ancient rock edicts.
