Abolition of the Mandal System in Colonial India: Bankura Krishnadas Pathak, State-Aided College Teacher, Department of History, Panchmura Mahavidyalaya, Bankura, West Bengal, India | |
Before the colonial phase, the mandal system in the present Bankura district was a special system of agricultural advancement in land management. But after the entry of British rule the mandal system came to an end in the district with the introduction of permanent settlement. As a result of which the larger Santal community of the district became landless and became farm labourers. And the lands left by them are occupied by the Bhooifor class like Mahajan, Pattanidar etc. This transformation caused a radical change in the agriculture of the district. As this change prevailed throughout the colonial period, peasant society and agricultural progress remained neglected. | |
