Question

list any three features of permanent settlement. how did it lead to further exploitation of farmers ?( in short)

Answer 1

Hi friend

=> landowners or zamindars acquired hereditary rights over land

=> the land revenue was fixed at roughly 50 percent of the total produce

=> this revenue was fixed permanently for the next 10 years

Effects on the peasant

=> the actual cultivators of the land were left at the mercy of zamindars who imposed many illegal taxes

=> the peasants had to pay taxes even if the crops failed

=> peasants were evicted from the land they had cultivated for generations if they did not pay revenue.

Hope this answer helps you my friend
