Correct Answer: where


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Explanation:
When is used to refer to a specific moment in time, whereas where is used to refer to a location. In this context, it is more appropriate to use where , as it helps connect the place ("Sarnath") to the action of Budha preaching.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: Sarnath is the place where Buddha preached his first sermon.
