Rajgir<\/p>\n<p>Ashoka&#8217;s pillar with single Asiatic Lion Cap is situated at Rajgir, Bihar, India. It is one of the many Ashoka pillars that were erected by the Mauryan emperor Ashoka the Great in the 3rd century BCE. The pillar is made of sandstone and is about 12 meters tall. It is topped by a single Asiatic lion, which is the national animal of India. The pillar is inscribed with edicts from Ashoka, which are decrees that he issued to his subjects. The edicts deal with a variety of topics, including religious tolerance, non-violence, and animal welfare.<\/p>\n<p>The Ashoka pillar at Rajgir is one of the most important historical monuments in India. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a popular tourist destination.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option B, Vaishali, is a city in the Indian state of Bihar.
