Explanation:
Ryotwari System was introduced by Thomas Munro in 1820. Major areas of introduction include Madras, Bombay, parts of Assam and Coorgh provinces of British India. In Ryotwari System the ownership rights were handed over to the peasants. British Government collected taxes directly from the peasants. Designating or relating to land tenure in India characterized by direct settlement between the government and the cultivators, without the intervention of a zamindar or landlord.They had ownership rights, could sell, mortgage or gift the land. The taxes were directly collected by the government from the peasants. The rates were 50% in dryland and 60% in the wetland. The rates were high and unlike the Permanent System, they were open to being increased.The system was devised by Capt. Alexander Read and Thomas (later Sir Thomas) Munro at the end of the 18th century and introduced by the latter when he was governor (1820–27) of Madras (now Chennai). The principle was the direct collection of the land revenue from each individual cultivator by government agents.Ryot (alternatives: raiyat, rait or ravat) (Urdu: راعیت) was a general economic term used throughout India for peasant cultivators but with variations in different provinces.
what were the disadvantages of the ryotwari system?
- The peasant had to bear a high tax rate.
- The tax had to be paid irrespective even if the crops failed due to factors like drought.
- During such times, peasants were reduced to starvation level due to the requirement to pay the tax.
- This could even lead to widespread famines. This conversation is already closed by Expert.
The advantages of this system were the elimination of middlemen, who often oppressed villagers, and an assessment of the tax on land actually cultivated and not merely occupied. Offsetting these advantages was the cost of detailed measurement and of individual collection.
