Correct Answer: forced labour


Solution : The correct answer is forced labour.

​​​​​​The term "Vetti" means forced labour. This was a kind of tax under the Chola empire. The Vetti tax was taken in the form of forced labour, not in cash. Under this taxation system, peasants were forced to work for the king or their village landlord for free. The land tax was known as Kanikadan. One-third of the produce was collected as the land tax. The Chola empire was founded by Vijayalaya.
