Solution

The correct option is B Huliya
To make monitoring of the soldiers easier, Alauddin Khilji had records made based on their physical features and this was known as Huliya. The soldiers had military rights as well. Any issues they had regarding the salary or work, they could talk to him directly. He was responsible for their training, distribution of their salaries and procuring arms. Sahaan-e-mandi refers to the officials appointed to oversee the markets and punish those who defied his regulations.
