⟹ Mansabdars :-
- mansabdar referred to an individual holding a mansab, meaning a position or rank.
- It was a grading system used by the Mughals to fix rank, salary and military responsibilities.
- The mansabdars were assigned to military responsibilities.
- For this, they maintained a specified number of sawar or cavalrymen.
________________________________
⟹ Jagirdars :-
- The jagirdari system was a system that allotted jagirs to jagirdars or landlords in return for the services rendered by them to the Mughal Empire.
- This resulted in a major dip in the flow of revenue to the royal treasury and inevitably led to a decline in the power of the Mughal Emperor.
