D Correct answer
Explanation

Yuvraj is a Sanskrit word meaning 'crown prince' or 'young prince' - the heir apparent next in line to the throne. The question appears to have garbled the business term 'Number Two' or similar, but the Sanskrit origin for 'heir/prince' is correctly identified as Yuvraj. Rajkumar also means prince but Yuvraj specifically denotes the crown prince - the direct successor.
