B Correct answer
Explanation

Charminar was built in 1591 by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah to commemorate the end of a deadly plague epidemic, not as a symbol of love. This is a common misconception - the monument represents gratitude for the city's survival and recovery from the plague. The Taj Mahal is the famous monument associated with love.
