in the mid-nineteenth century, the British government in India introduced the Grazing tax. In this newly introduced tax, the government levied a tax on every animal they fed on the pastures. The main motive of this tax was to increase the revenue for the colonial government. In the later decades, the authority to collect revenue was auctioned out to contractors. Accordingly, the contractors levied taxes as high as they could. Thereafter, the colonial government levied this tax directly from the pastoralists.
