Solution

The correct option is A Bhumidhar
Those cultivators who wanted to acquire ownership rights on the land were called upon to pay to the government a given multiple of the rent that they used to pay to the zamindar. In Uttar Pradesh, it was fixed at ten times the annual rent. In this way, landless labourers have become Bhumidhars.
