Answer:

Zamindars and jotedars

Explanation:

The correct option would be option (c)jotedars give out loans to other royats and sold their producers.

During the 1700s,

The zamindars were facing major crisis, a class of rich peasants called the jotedars consolidated their power and position in the villages. They were most active in the regions of the Northern Bengal. They were also called gantidars or mandals. The major reasons for their rise to power are:

• By the early 19th century, the jotedars had acquired vast areas of land. When the estates of the zamindars were auctioned because of their failure to pay taxes, jotedars were mostly the purchasers. Thus they emerged as the commanding figures in the Northern Bengal.

• They controlled local trade and moneylending, thus exercising huge power and authority over the poorer cultivators. They mostly practised sharecropping. Under this, their land was leased to sharecroppers who brought their own equipment, worked in the field, and handed over half the produce to the jotedars after the harvest. Thus they were able to control the peasants.

• The jotedars were housed in the villages itself and had direct control over the villagers. They resisted the efforts of zamindars to increase the jama of the village, prevented zamindari officials from performing their duties, organised ryots and deliberately delayed payments of revenue to the zamindars.

Explanation:  

  • The word zamindar has stemmed from the word zamin meaning land.
  • The landowners were known as zamindars and it was under the British rule that specific rules were established about how the revenue would be paid to the company and the manner in which the zamindars would gain income.
  • It was never before this time that the zamindars were answerable to anyone but the British came and looted the land and acted as the sovereign ruler.
