Overview:
-----------
*The Company introduced the Permanent Settlement. By the terms of the settlement, the rajas and taluqdars were recognised as zamindars, and the amount to be paid to the Company was fixed permanently.
*The British forced cultivators to produce crops of their demand, like indigo and opium.
*Indigo production collapsed in Bengal as thousands of ryots rebelled.
*The East India Company became the Diwan of Bengal in 1765, but it still saw itself primarily as a trader.

this lesson is really good highly recamended
Very good and nice
It is really good. but, in skit more as well as simple dialogues can be added in the script to explain the content. The skit can be given as videos if possible. It is my humble suggestion.
