The British did not introduce administrative changes in the territories they conquered.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

False. British introduced many administrative changes in the territories they conquered. Warren Hastings, the first Governor-General, introduced several administrative reforms, notably in the sphere of justice. From 1772 a new system of justice was established. Each district was to have two courts – a criminal court (faujdari adalat ) and a civil court (diwani adalat).
