Answer:

François Bernier (25 September 1620 – 22 September 1688) was a French physician and traveller. He was born in Joué-Etiau in Anjou. He was briefly personal physician to Mughal prince Dara Shikoh (28 October 1615 – 30 August 1659), the eldest son of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, and after Dara Shikoh's execution, was attached to the court of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb (14 October 1618 – 20 February 1707), for around 12 years during his stay in India.

Explanation:

  • Bernier, most likely the first European to visit Kashmir, "often termed the paradise of India," went there in 1664 with Aurangzeb.
  • In India, Bernier said with assurance, "There is no middle state."
  • Bernier observed the Mughal Empire, which he described as having a king who was the "lord of beggars and barbarians," cities and towns that were in ruins and had "foul air," and fields that were "overrun with shrubs" and home to "pestilential swamps."
  • According to Bernier, one of the key distinctions between Mughal India and Europe was that the former lacked private property.
  • The emperor and the nobles possessed all the land. The effects on the economy and society were severe.
  • Bernier believed that India was, in essence, inferior to and worse than the Western nations.
  • Bernier discussed the ownership of land in India. Land was not privately owned in this location. The king owned this piece of land.
