D Correct answer
Explanation

Pandu had two wives: Kunti and Madri. Kunti was the first wife and mother of Karna (through Surya) and the three eldest Pandavas (Yudhishthira, Bhima, and Arjuna). Madri was the second wife who invoked the Ashwini twins to give birth to Nakula and Sahadeva. After Pandu's death, Madri performed sati, leaving Kunti to raise all five Pandavas. Gandhari was Dhritarashtra's wife, and Draupadi married all five Pandavas.
