I have something against puzzles like this, because they aren't provided along with the information needed to solve them. Has the king or the rook moved or not? Still, nice one!

The answer to this to-o - obvious problem is somewhere in this sentence.
Pranay,
i am beginner- can't solve this. Your quote is nice.

those who thought it was Rd1 are wrong
O-O-O(Queen side castle)is the correct answer
You can't castle out of check, so that is an incorrect answer.
Sorry I was being stupid I thought that queen was black.

Csstling and en passant puzzles are sneaky but common enough that it's easy for many of us to anticipate.

No one is in check right now whay are you saying? White plays 000 checkmate.

I am not ashamed to admit, that one had me stumped the first time i saw it.
Nice exercise. This can come up in regular games too and another idea on this is if you have swapped Queens and then castle long if the opponent takes with his KIng. It places him in check and also protects your King. You can see this in many games where Black plays the Philidor.
