Answer 2

Answer:

The two taxes abolished by Akbar were Jizyah and pilgrim tax.

Explanation:

• Akbar went hunting near Mathura in 1563. He noted that there was a fee being collected from the pilgrims who had congregated there.
• Akbar had no awareness about the charge that was collected from Hindu pilgrims from all over the world.
• When Akbar enquired, he was told that it was the tradition of every Muslim king to collect pilgrim tax from Hindus at every Hindu pilgrimage site. The tax was not a fixed one.
• It was determined arbitrarily according to rank and wealth of the pilgrim. 
•  The pilgrim fee was ethically wrong, according to Akbar, since it was inflicted on individuals who came "in pursuit of the light of God" and because it was not uniform but arbitrary, changing according to the whims of the tax collector. Throughout his realm, he abolished the pilgrim tax.
