Explain briefly The Economic reforms of Alauddin Khalji

Answer:↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
......................................................................................
Alauddin Khilji introduced many economic reforms during his rule. Alauddin had to maintain a huge army. This had become all the more imperative in view of Mongal raids and internal revolts. He had, besides, the ambition of conquering the whole of India. However, such an army could not be permanently maintained without straining the resources of the State. Hence Alauddin fixed the salaries of his huge army at a very low level. Accordingly the Sultan’s main concern was to enable the soldier to live on his pay. To this end he resolved to control the prices of necessaries.
1. The Sultan required extra wealth for the splendour of the Courland to enhance his own pomp and show. For this it was essential to introduce reforms in the revenue system.
2. Alauddin was an ambitious ruler. He established law and order in the country by crushing the rebels and conspirators. He required a lot or money to fulfil his desjgns.
3. The Sultan needed money in order to check the incessant Mongol invasions and to strengthen the north-west frontier.
4. Alauddin had an opinion that the landlords became wealthy and powerful without any labour and they conspired against the Sultan due to excess of money. The Sultan decided to reduce them to the state of the poor and the powerless, so “he introduced some changes in the land system.
5. In the revenue department Khuts and Mugaddams had become quite wealthy and powerful through corruption. They were also enjoying several privileges. The Sultan wanted to end their supremacy in the revenue department, so it became essential for him to introduce some reforms in the revenue department. Dr. P. Saran also remarked, “His economic measures were the outcome of an urgent and grave political situation.”
