otwari System

Mahalwari System

It was introduced in Madras, Bombay, parts of Assam and Coorg provinces of British India.

It was introduced in North Western Provinces of the Bengal Presidency, Central Provinces, Agra, Punjab and the Gangetic Valley.

It was devised by Alexander Read and Thomas Munroe.

It was devised by Holt Mackenzie.

In this system, the land was inspected and measured. The land was divided into ‘mahals’ or villages. Each ‘mahal’ could consist of one or more villages. Thus, revenues were paid not by a peasant but by the people of the ‘mahal’ 'collectively.

 

Under this system, the ownership rights of the land were given to the peasants. Revenues were collected by British officers directly from the peasants.
