History
Zamindars
In this Class 12 History topic from “Peasants, Zamindars and the State,” students examine the role of zamindars in rural society and the agrarian system of Mughal India. They learn how these local landholders collected revenue, maintained authority, organised cultivation, and interacted with peasants and the state. The topic also explores the varied rights and influence of zamindars across regions, their links with village communities, and how historical records help reconstruct their changing economic and social position.
