Description

About The Book: The author compiles chapters from the Bengal Magazine to address the overlooked needs of India's cultivating classes. While rulers express sympathy, translating it into effective reform faces obstacles due to limited knowledge and one-sided public opinion. The book emphasizes recognizing the rights, education, and representation of peasants, advocating for legislation benefiting the masses. It discusses unique reform measures, recognizing the challenge of challenging views prioritizing zemindars' interests. The book trusts the British Government's intentions while offering constructive criticism to improve India's welfare. Additionally, the book explores the Bengal Ryot's historical experiences, justice administration, village industry, taxation, and future prospects, with relevant extracts in the appendices.
