Instruction for Question Nos. 86-100.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions. Choose the correct answer from the alternatives based only on the passage given.

Megasthenese declared that there were no salves in India. He was certainly wrong, but Indian slavery was milder than the form he was used to see in the West and slaves were much less numerous than in the civilizations of the West, hence he may not have recognized the dasa as a slave. The Arthshastra, in many ways more liberal than the religious books, lays down regulations appreciably milder than those we have outlined. The sale of children into slavery is explicitly forbidden except in dire emergency. Slaves are entitled to own and inherit property, and to earn money freely in their spare time. Slaves of the upper classes cannot be forced to perform defiling duties. The chastity of slave-girls is protected, the master who rapes a slave-girl must set her free and pay her compensation, and if she has a child by her master, even with her own consent, both mother and child become free. The humane regulations of the Arthshastra, probably unique in the records of any ancient civilization, are perhaps survivals of Mauryan laws, and it is, therefore, not surprising that Megasthenese declared that there was no slavery in India.

86. Why did Megasthenese declare that there was no slavery in India?
(a) He did not see any slaves in India.
(b) Indian slavery was not cruel.
(c) The Arthashastra made strict laws against slavery.
(d) The Vamashrama system did not allow slavery.
