(2, ii) *Rājasevakānām vasatidaṇḍaprayāṇadaṇḍau.* ‘Fines or dues leviable at the time of the halt or departure of the royal officers’. These are mentioned in a Yādava grant⁷⁸ but may have been common in our period as well. Tandon-tottam plates of Vijayanandivikramavarman⁷⁹ mentions a fee for the man, who used to bring the royal orders to the village. This fee would also come under the present category.
