Which one of the following is not a Harappan site?
D.Desalpur
B.Kot Diji
A.Chanhudaro
C.Sohgaura
Correct Answer: Option C
Chanhudaro, Kot Diji, and Desalpur are all Harappan sites.
The Sohgaura copper plate inscription is associated with a later period. It is an Indian copper plate inscription written in Prakrit using the Brahmi script.
It was discovered in Sohgaura, a village on the banks of the Rapti River, approximately 20km south-east of Gorakhpur, in Uttar Pradesh.
Therefore, Sohgaura is not a Harappan site.
