Solution

The correct option is B Kantas
The markets in Jadcherla and Madanapuram are preferred for selling cotton. The weighing of the products is done using weighing machines manufactured in the village. These machines are called kantas. The kantas are manufactured by villagers at home as a result of their distrust of the machines used at the market.
