    Correct option is A

    The Chausath Yogini Temple at Bheraghat, Madhya Pradesh, preserves 64 images of Yoginis. The term "Chausath" itself means sixty-four in Hindi, referring to the number of Yogini goddesses enshrined in the temple. This temple, built in the 10th century during the Kalachuri dynasty, is one of the few remaining Yogini temples in India. The Yoginis are associated with the Tantric tradition and represent various aspects of the divine feminine.

    The temple is circular in shape, with niches housing the sculptures of the Yoginis, each representing a different manifestation of feminine power.
