D Correct answer
Explanation

This is a classic riddle where the punchline is that the auto driver made a fool out of the passenger - the passenger was 'made blind' (deceived) by being overcharged, not that they actually lost vision. The next day they could 'see' (realize) they were cheated. 'Ullu' is Hindi slang for fool.

AI explanation

This is a riddle/joke question rather than a factual one. The setup ('charged Rs.200 instead of Rs.50... next day could not see, but at night could see again') is a pun: the punchline is that the autowala 'made him a fool' (banaya use ullu — ullu meaning both 'owl' and 'fool/dupe' in Hindi slang, and owls see in the dark/are blind by day). The other options (disease, forgetting medicine, dust in eyes) are literal medical explanations that don't fit a joke format and aren't supported by any detail in the setup. The intended answer relies on the wordplay, matching option D.
