Zamindari system(permanent land revenue settlement)

In 1950, the East Bengal Legislative Assembly enacted the

East Bengal State Acquisition and Tenancy Act of 1950
which abolished the zamindari system as part of land
reforms. In West Bengal, the zamindari system was
abolished under federal laws enacted by the Indian
government in 1951.

The key features of permanent settlement:

The owners of the land were known as landlords or

Zamindars. - Hereditary rights of succession of the lands under
them were granted to them. - The sum which the landlords had
to pay was fixed. - The Zamindars could sell or transfer the land
as they wished.
Zamindari System (Permanent Land Revenue Settlement)
Also known as Permanent Settlement System. Zamindars were
recognized as the owner of the lands. Zamindars were given
the rights to collect the rent from the peasants. While the
zamindars became the owners of the land, the actual farmers
became tenants.
The term “life expectancy” refers to the number of years a
person can expect to live. By definition, life expectancy is based
on an estimate of the average age that members of a particular
population group will be when they die.
Elaborate on the jamdani style of weaving.

Jamdani is a fine muslin on which decorative motifs are

woven on the loom, typically in grey and white. Often a mixture
of cotton and gold thread was also used. The most important
centres of jamdani weaving were Dacca in Bengal and
Lucknow in the United Provinces.
The like-minded trio - Henry Thomas Colebrooke, Nathaniel
Halhed, and William Jones set up the Asiatic Society of
Bengal and started a journal called Asiatic Researches.
