Question

In what way was the administration of the company different from that of indian rulers?

Answer 1

British territories were broadly divided into
administrative units called Presidencies.
There were three Presidencies: Bengal,
Madras and Bombay.
2. Each Presidency was ruled by a Governor.
The supreme head of the administration was
the Governor-General.
3. Each Presidency was divided into districts.
The principal figure in an Indian district was
the
Collector.
4. The main job of the collector was to collect
revenue and taxes and maintain law and
order
in his district with the help of judges, police
officers and darogas.
5. Under Jurisdiction reforms, each district was
to have two courts – a criminal court
(faujdari adalat ) and a civil court (diwani
adalat ). Maulvis and Hindu pandits
interpreted Indian laws for the collectors.
6. European district collectors presided over civil
courts. The criminal courts were still under a
qazi and a mufti but under the supervision of
the collectors.
7. Under the Regulating Act of 1773, a new
Supreme Court and a court of appeal(the
Sadar Nizamat Adalat) were set up at
Calcutta.
The administration system set up by the
Company was not meant for the welfare of the
common people. Rather its main objective was
to strengthen the foundations of British rule and
increase revenue of the Company.
