Explanation by: Admin

The Pipal tree (Ficus religiosa) was considered sacred and worshiped by the people of the Indus Valley Civilization.

  • Archaeological evidence and ancient texts suggest the Pipal tree’s significance in religious and cultural practices during that time.

Why others are incorrect:

  • Neem Tree — Important in later Indian traditions but not specifically associated with Indus worship.
  • Banyan Tree — Also sacred in later Indian culture, but Pipal was more prominent in the Indus context.
  • Teak Tree — No evidence of special religious importance in the Indus Valley Civilization.

✅ Final answer: (B) Pipal Tree
