Question

what were economic measures by Aluddin khalhi​

Answer 1

Economic measures during Allauddin Khilji

• He fixed the price of food grains, fruits, vegetables, cloth etc to stop speculation and black marketing which led to low prices of goods.

• He took away the special rights of middlemen so that land owners could directly pay taxes into royal treasury.

• He reduced the salary of his soldiers to control the military expenditure

Answer 2

Answer:

The market control system and the economic regulations issued to that effect, were the most revolutionary and remarkable reforms made by the Alauddin.

Explanation:

As per Barni, the basic objective of these reforms was to maintain a large and efficient army for keeping the Mongols in check. Such a large army could not be maintained and kept content out of the normal revenues of the state, unless the prices of commodities were reduced. Thus, economic regulations were primarily a military measure.
