D Correct answer
Explanation

Chandragupta Maurya abdicated his throne and became a follower of Jainism. He migrated to Shravanabelagola in Karnataka and spent his final years as a Jain monk under the guidance of Bhadrabahu. Hinduism was his birth religion, and Buddhism came to prominence under his grandson Ashoka, not Chandragupta himself.
