Q: 'पुस्तकालय' शब्द में कौन सा समास है?

The correct answer is A. The word 'पुस्तकालय' is a compound of 'पुस्तक' + 'आलय' meaning 'आलय ऑफ़ पुस्तकों' (house of books). This shows a possessive relationship where the first word modifies the second, making it a Tatpurush Samas. Memory trick: When you can add 'का/के/की' between two words, it's usually Tatpurush Samas.
