The Permanent Settlement, introduced by the British East India Company in 1793, was one of the most significant land revenue systems implemented during the colonial rule in India. It was introduced by Lord Cornwallis, the then Governor-General of India, primarily in the provinces of Bengal, Bihar, and Orissa. The nature and impact of the Permanent Settlement had far-reaching consequences for Indian society, economy, and agrarian relations, which continued well into the 19th and 20th centuries.

Nature of the Permanent Settlement

The Permanent Settlement was a revenue system aimed at ensuring a fixed and permanent income for the British administration from the land. Under this system, zamindars (landlords) were given the responsibility of collecting revenue from peasants and paying a fixed sum to the British government every year. In return, the zamindars were recognized as the legal owners of the land, and the revenue assessment was fixed in perpetuity, meaning it could not be altered in the future. The amount payable to the British was agreed upon based on the productive capacity of the land at the time of the settlement.
