c15.s1.t1.82

Tenth.—Strongly urge the *āmins*, *amils*, *chaudhuris*, *qānungoes*, and *mutasaddis*, to abolish balia, exactions (*ākhrājāt*) in excess of revenue, and forbidden *ābwābs* (cesses),—which impair the welfare of the ryots. Take securities from them that they should never exact *balia* or collect the *ābwābs* prohibited and abolished by His Majesty. And you yourself should constantly get information, and if you find any one doing so and not heeding your prohibition and threat, report the fact to the Emperor, that he may be dismissed from service and another person appointed in his place.
