Detailed Solution

The given statement is false.
Rajgriha is the home of Magadha.
Rajagriha, where Magadha's capital was located, was near the Ganges River. Because it was one of the sixteen mahajanapadas, Magadha gained popularity. Between 682 and 544 BCE, the dynasties of Brihadratha, Pradyota, Haryanka, and the Shishunaga ruled over Magadha (413–345 BCE). Then, the Nanda Empire (c. 345-322 BCE), the Maurya Empire (c. 322-185 BCE), the Shunga Empire (c. 185-78 BCE), and the Gupta Empire all succeeded Magadha as the largest powers in northern India. Buddhism and Jainism both benefited greatly from Magadha's contributions.
The correct statement would be Rajasthan is not the home of Magadha.
