Answer

D. Vishti – Forced or corvée labour

Show ExplanationHide Explanation

Explanation

Vishti – forced or corvée labour. Bhaga refers to the ruler’s share of produce; bhoga can refer to supplies of goods. Hiranya concerns payments in money, and dhanya relates to grain, not a tax specifically on gold. The original explanation confused bhoga with bhaga.
