While the standard town planning of core Harappan metropolitan centers strictly followed a chessboard grid iron pattern, which of the following sites exhibits a distinct layout where streets radiate outward in a radial or concentric pattern from a central fortified point?

Question

Banawali in Haryana, located on the ancient dry bed of the Sarasvati River, breaks away from the strict rectangular grid plan observed in Mohenjo-daro. Its street layout exhibits a distinctive radial or concentric design, where primary communication channels stem outward from a centralized elite fortified complex.
