Solution

The correct option is B bonded labour
When workers are forced to work without an agreement and asked to repay their debt over a period of time, it is referred to as bonded labour. The services required to repay the debt may be undefined, and the services' duration may be undefined. Thus, the creditor can demand services indefinitely from the debtor.
