In 1793, a system called Zamindari was introduced by a person named Cornwallis through a law called the Permanent Settlement Act. This system was implemented in Bengal, Bihar, Orissa, and Varanasi. It was also known as the Permanent Settlement System. Under this system, the people who owned the lands, called Zamindars, were officially recognized as the owners of the lands.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1700133141989\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Who abolished the Zamindari system?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In 1935, during the Kisan Conference in Allahabad, a resolution was passed to abolish the Zamindari system.

This resolution was a significant moment in India&#8217;s struggle for independence from British rule.
