.....otherwise, from the under-right holders. They had under them many under-right holders, with varying rights in the land, and not all of these were actual cultivators. After 1947, all intermediary rights in land were abolished according to National Policy on land tenure. Some of the inam tenures were also characterised by separation of ownership from cultivation. In other cases, the inamdars were enjoying the lands rent free (i.e., revenue free) or on concessional or fixed rents. All these systems became redundant after political developments of 1947, therefore abolished subsequently. Inam Tenures.- Besides above tenures, other categories of tenures were prevalent known as Inam tenures. "Inam" means a gift, from a ruler to a subject. Traditionally the superior political authority made gifts or 'inams', mainly land to be held rent free and in perpetuity or for the duration of the rulers pleasure. Some inams considered of only State assessed revenue from specified hands; and some others only of a regular cash payment. Categories of Inams.- (1) Political Inams.- Saranjams and other types. (2) Inam grants not held for any service or for some political considerations and.....
