Answer:

The zamindars were landlords who collected peasant rent and paid it to the Company. The rajas and taluqdars were recognised as zamindars under the terms of the permanent settlement.

Explanation:

During the Mughal Empire, zamindars were members of the nobility and the ruling class. Emperor Akbar bestowed mansabs on them, and their ancestral domains were treated as jagirs. Some zamindars were Hindus by religion and caste Brahmin, Kayastha, or Kshatriya. The Permanent Settlement established what became known as the zamindari system during the colonial era. The British rewarded loyal zamindars by making them princes. Many of the princely states in the region were pre-colonial zamindar holdings elevated to a higher protocol. The British also reduced the land holdings of many pre-colonial princely states and chieftaincy, demoting them from higher ranks of nobility to zamindar.

In the Indian subcontinent, a Zamindar was the autonomous or semi-autonomous ruler of a province.
