B Correct answer
Explanation

In Hindu mythology, Goddess Durga was created through the combined energies of all the gods to defeat the demon Mahishasura. However, it was Rishi Katayana (also spelled Katyayana) who performed the intense rituals and penance that gave life to the goddess. For this reason, Durga is also known as 'Katyayani.' Option B correctly identifies Rishi Katayan as the one who gave life to Devi Durga.
