It's option C, because the point of contraflexure is a point where Bending moment changes its sign.
At that point, Bending moment will be zero. Shear force will be maximum.
Since the rate of change of Bending moment is a shear force.
At that point, Bending moment will be zero. Shear force will be maximum.
Since the rate of change of Bending moment is a shear force.
