Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

(C) After 3 years

● Explanation -

• Adhik maas is the extra month every 3 years in Hindu calendar.
• Hindu (Lunar) calendar has 354 days as compared to 365 days of English (solar) calendar.
• Due to this gas lunar calendar lags behind 11 days to solar calendar.
• To fill this gap, an extra month is added to lunar calendar every three years. i.e. 11×3 = 33 days ~ 1 month.
• This extra month is called Adhik maas in Hindu calendar.

Hope this helps you...
