Mansabdari System:
✅Mansabdari System was the bureaucratic administration system of the Mughal Rulers in India.
✅The bureaucratic administration of Mughals in India was based on a system called Mansabdari System.
✅ You can compare the collectors of the modern era with the Mansabdars of the Mughal era.
✅ However, the functions of Mansabdars not only include civil work but also military work.
✅ It was not hereditary.
✅ All Mansabdars were not similar stature.
✅ They hold different Zat (rank).
✅ Zat — Denote the rank in the administration
✅ Sawar — Denote the number of cavalry men Mansabdar had to maintain.
✅ Smaller mansabdars were called Amir and bigger were called Umra.
✅ Those Mansabdars, who were paid in cash, were called Naqdi.
✅ Those Mansabdars who were paid through land (Jagirs) were called Jagirdars.
✅ It is to be remembered that it is not land that was assigned but only the right to collect revenue or income from the piece of land.
✅ No mansabdar could hold on to the said Jagir for a long term as they were liable for transfer.
▪️Who introduced Mansabdari in India?
✅The Mansabdar appears to be a Central Asian institution.
✅Introduced by Akbar in India.
▪️Iqtadari System:
✅ The Delhi Sultanate (The Khalji and the Tughlaq monarchs) too appointed military commanders as governers of territories.
✅ These land were called the Iqta and the landholders were called Iqtadars or the muqti.
✅ Most of the Muqti stayed in their Iqta unlike Jagirdars.
Mansabdari Vs. Iqtadari :
✅The Iqtadari system was used by the Delhi Sultans, while Mansabdari was used by Mughal rulers.
✅ While Iqtedari system was in force, the whole land of the Empire was divided into two parts -- one which belonged to Iqtedars and the other which belonged to the emperor.
✅But in Jagirdari, the whole land belonged to the Emperor.
✅ Itqadar was the officer in charge of the revenue collection and distribution.
✅Jagirdar had law and order responsibility in addition to the revenue collection.
