Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Lake Rakshastal.
Lake Rakshastal is a significant saltwater lake situated in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China. It lies to the west of the sacred Lake Manasarovar and the south of the revered Mount Kailash. Unlike the holy Manasarovar, Rakshastal is often associated with negative connotations in Hindu mythology, sometimes referred to as the 'Demon Lake' due to its stark, barren surroundings and lack of aquatic life.
