The Jagir system in Mughal administration was related to what?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Assignment of revenue rights
A jagir was an assignment of the right to collect revenue from a specified area, generally given to a mansabdar instead of direct cash salary. The jagirdar was expected to fulfil administrative or military obligations, and the assignment did not normally mean private ownership of the land. Cave painting, maritime trade alone and Vedic recitation are unrelated, so A is correct.
