Solution

The correct option is D The moral virtues of all Indian religions of that period
Dhamma is a set of edicts that formed a policy of the Mauryan emperor Ashoka. Ashoka’s dhamma was neither a new religion nor a new political philosophy. Rather, it was a way of life, a code of conduct and a set of principles to be adopted and practiced by the people at large.
