Chungi Dausa - History details

The Hindi word 'Chungi' does not refer to a specific place in Dausa, Rajasthan, but rather to an "octroi" or "toll tax". Given that Dausa is a historic city, it is possible that the term refers to an old toll post. Octroi was a tax levied on goods entering a city before its abolition in many parts of India and replacement with systems like the Goods and Services Tax (GST).
