Option b is correct.
Lord Cornwallis (1738 - 1805) introduced the Permanent Revenue Settlement in 1793. He was the Commander-in-Chief as well as the Governor of the Bengal Presidency.
According to the Permanent Revenue Settlement, the landlords of the Bengal Presidency would settle the land revenue to the British, based on the value of the land they held and in turn become hereditary land owners.
