Correct Answer: in


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The preposition in is used to indicate the place of someone's birth. It's a standard and widely accepted way of expressing the location or country of birth. The other prepositions, such as off, of, and through do not convey the same meaning and are not suitable in this context.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "He was born in India."
