Begar
Begar, It is a word of Indian origin which like many other words has found its way in the English vocabulary. It is very difficult to formulate a precise definition of the word 'begar', but there can be no doubt that it is a form of forced labour under which a person is compelled to work without receiving any remuneration. Molesworth describes 'begar' as 'labour or service extracted by a govern-ment or person in power without giving remuneration for it'.

Under the old system, when pressed for public service, no pay was given. The begari, through still liable to be pressed for public objects, now receives pay. Forced labour for private service is prohibited.' 'Begar' may therefore be loosely described as labour or service which a person is forced to give without receiving any remuneration for it. That was the me...
