An electric dipole is situated in an electric field as shown in the figure. The dipole and electric field are both in the plane of the paper. The dipole is rotated about an axis perpendicular to the paper at point $A$ in an anti-clockwise direction. If the angle of rotation is measured with respect to the direction of the electric field,then the torque for different values of the angle of rotation $\theta$ is correctly represented by which graph among $a, b, c, d$ given in the figure?
