Solution

The correct option is D 20000
The landed aristocracy which included the taluqdars and the hereditary landlords were deprived of their estates. According to the provisions of the Inam Commission (1852), 20000 estates were confiscated when the landlords failed to produce evidence like title-deeds by which they held the land.
