C Correct answer
Explanation

Pratapgad is the fort where the famous battle between Shivaji Maharaj and Afzal Khan (the Adilshahi general) was fought in 1659. Shivaji killed Afzal Khan in a legendary meeting using a tiger claw weapon (wagh nakh). Kanheri Caves and Ajanta are Buddhist sites, while Goa is a state, not a fort.
