Mitakshara is _______ school whereas the Dayabhaga is a Reformist School.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The Mitakshara, Vijnaneshwara's commentary on the Yajnavalkya Smriti, is regarded as "an orthodox" school that closely follows the traditional texts. The Dayabhaga of Jimutavahana departed from it on points such as the son's right by birth, and is therefore described as a reformist or liberal school.
