Correct Answer: Harmika


Solution : The correct option is Harmika

The square or rectangular structure at the summit of a Buddhist stupa is referred to as a "harmika". It is a unique architectural feature that sits atop the stupa and is frequently interpreted as a metaphor for the gods' dwelling. The harmika is a raised platform, like a railing, situated above the stupa's main body.
