When did the abolition of the zamindari system in India take place?
A
1949
B
1950
C
1960
D
1965
Correct Option:
B
Explanation
1950 is the standard examination answer because major zamindari-abolition legislation began to be enacted around the beginning of the 1950s—for example, the Uttar Pradesh Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950. Strictly speaking, zamindari was abolished through separate state laws rather than by one single nationwide event on one date.
