A Correct answer
Explanation

Jayadratha received a boon from Lord Shiva that he could hold off all the Pandavas except Arjuna for one day. This boon was activated when he single-handedly stopped the four Pandava brothers from entering the battlefield on the 13th day, leading to Abhimanyu's isolated death. The next day, Arjuna had to kill Jayadratha before sunset to honor his vow.
