Solution

The correct option is C Parganas
Akbar took inspiration from the administration of Sher Shah and added his own touches. The entire kingdom was divided into smaller pockets or provinces known as “Subhas”. These were divided into “Sarkars” which are like districts. Sarkars were divided into “Parganas”.
