Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Answer: D
The fort originally named Chitrakot is the Chittor Fort.
Tradition attributes the fort to the Mori (Maurya) ruler Chitrangad, after whom it was called Chitrakot or Chitrakut; the name later became Chittor, and the fort Chittorgarh.
Jalore Fort was anciently called Suvarnagiri (Sonalgarh), and neither Siwana Fort nor Churu Fort is associated with the name Chitrakot.
