Answer:

Land revenue was one of the major sources of income for Britishers in India. There were broadly three types of land revenue policies in existence during the British rule in India.

Before independence, there were three major types of land tenure systems prevailing in the country:

The Zamindari System

The Mahalwari System

The Ryotwari System

The basic difference in these systems was regarding the mode of payment of land revenue.

The Zamindari System

The zamindari system was introduced by Lord Cornwallis in 1793 through Permanent Settlement that fixed the land rights of the members in perpetuity without any provision for fixed rent or occupancy right for actual cultivators.

Under the Zamindari system, the land revenue was collected from the farmers by the intermediaries known as Zamindars.

The share of the government in the total land revenue collected by the zamindars was kept at 10/11th, and the remainder going to zamindars.

The system was most prevalent in West Bengal, Bihar, Odisha, UP, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.
