Answer: C

The scientific name of khair is Acacia catechu.

Khair, Acacia catechu (now also called Senegalia catechu), yields katha (cutch), obtained by boiling its heartwood, which is eaten with paan and used in tanning and dyeing.

Bauhinia purpurea is a kachnar, Acacia arabica is babul, and Morus alba is the white mulberry.

Khair is a common tree of the dry deciduous forests of Madhya Pradesh, and its heartwood is extracted under licence; illegal felling of khair for katha is a well-known forest offence.
