Correct answer: (B) Upamiti — Analogy roughly corresponds to Upamiti, so the answer is Upamiti.
Explanation
★Analogy roughly corresponds to Upamiti, so the answer is Upamiti.
★In Indian epistemology Upamana is knowledge gained through comparison.
★Upamiti is the resulting comparative knowledge.
★Analogy likewise reasons from a comparison between two similar things.
