The article discusses the land administration and economic conditions of Telangana, a part of the erstwhile Hyderabad State, during the first half of the 20th century. The Jagirdari system was prevalent in Telangana, where Jagirdars controlled 33 percent of the villages, accounting for 42 percent of the area. The Nizam's Dominions were based on principles of pure despotism or autocracy, with the entire region considered as the private property of its Ruler. The traditional village system of Patels and Patwaris remained intact. The government collected revenue through contractors known as Deshmukhs and Deshpandes. The system of "Tahud or 'Sarbasta' proved detrimental to both the peasantry and the government." The last contract under this system expired in 1276 F. (1866).
