what was the long term effect of the permanent settlement

Answer 1

hey friend...
here is ur answer...


The long term effects of permanent settlement are as follows -

A small group of landlords and nobles became the most influential people in the society.

The zamindars introduced malpractices such as polygamy and kulinism.

The landlords became more loyal to the British administration and stood by them as a pillar of support due to this permanent settlement system.

Answer 2

In order to get a stable revenue income, most of the East India Company’s officials believed that investment in land had to be encouraged and agriculture had to be improved. Debates on how this was to be done led to the introduction of the Permanent Settlement in 1793. The aim of this settlement was to ensure a regular flow of revenue for the Company. As per the settlement, rajas and taluqdars were recognised as zamindars. They were asked to collect rent from the peasants and pay revenue to the Company. The amount to be paid was fixed permanently and it was not to be increased ever in the future. The Company believed that as the revenue amount was fixed, the zamindars would benefit by investing in land improvement, which would in turn lead to increased production. If the zamindars failed to pay the revenue, which they usually did as the fixed revenue was very high, they lost their zamindari.
