About The Book: This book addresses the significant importance of the Land Revenue system in the Indian Empire, which has sparked widespread interest in comprehending its principles, implementation, and management. It holds relevance for jurists, scholars, and economists studying the historical development of land tenures, as well as taxation, land valuation, rent, and agricultural conditions. The assessment and collection of Land Revenue have long been a priority for governments, shaping territorial divisions and official agencies that continue to impact present-day arrangements. Understanding this system provides valuable insights into Indian governance, particularly since the agricultural class, representing the majority of the population, bears the burden of this revenue. Recognizing this, the Government of India mandates basic knowledge of Land systems for departmental officials. However, obtaining concise and accessible information on the subject has proven challenging.
