Answer 2

Answer:

Akbar introduced the mansabdari system because he needed a strong standing army forest territorial expansion and to maintain his hold over it. The word 'mansab' denoted the position or rank of the holder. Mansab was a grading system used to fix the rank and salary of the mansabdars. It also fixed the military responsibilities of the mansabdar. The lowest rank was 10 and the highest was 5000 for the nobles. Princes received higher ranks. Mansabdars received their salaries in form of revenue collected from the assigned land called Jagir. The holder of the jagir was called Jagirdar. During Akbar's reign, these jagirs were carefully accessed so that the revenue obtained from the Jahangir was equivalent to the salary of mansabdar. By Aurangzeb's reign, the revenue collected was often less than the fixed amount. Sometimes mansabdars had to wait long to receive their jagirs due to the increase in the number of mansabdars resulting in the shortage of jagirs. Therefore, many jagirdars collected maximum revenue from the jagir they had, causing tremendous burden on the peasants.
