Answer:
Sarais were spaces where travellers could stay for a considerable period of time. If they were merchants, they could also store their goods in these places, with special arrangements made for security. Usually, these inns charged a small sum, but some establishments were free of charge as they were built by nobles or royal personages

Answer:
Sarais or rest houses were built at different stages and separate arrangements were provided for the Muslims and the Hindus. These sarais also served as the purpose of post-houses, which facilitated quick exchange of news and supplied the government with information from different parts of the Empire.
