释义

References

Samasthanams (Samasthans) were vast tributary estates in the old Hyderabad State, a princely state in pre-Independence India^[1]. The creation of these Samasthans (large groups of villages) go back several hundred years, and many existed until the time of India's Independence in the 1940's. Of the many zamindars(landlords) in the Hyderabad State, only a few were considered landlords of a Samasthan. Below is a list of samasthans that existed in the old Hyderabad State.

Rents^[2]

The families ruling these Samasthans were responsible for collecting rent from the local villagers. Of the collected rent, the Samasthan landlords would keep a certain percentage and the rest would be given to the Nizam, the ruler of the Hyderabad State. There were only two Peshkash(fixed tribute) holders during the Nizam's rule: Gadwal and Gurgunta, each paying 81,795 and 5,291 in rent respectively.

The chief Makta or Sarbasta(quit-rent) holders were Wanaparthi, Jatprole, Gopalpet, Narkhoda, Amarchinta, Banswada, Domakonda, Chilamwar and Chincholi; together these families paid 3,43,094 in rent. The other Samasthan families as well as many other landlord families paid the remaining rent. The total Makta(rent) under the Nizam was 8,56,000.^[5]
