Solution

The correct option is A Jagirs
Jagirs were given to the Mughal officers in return for their services. In the later period when the Mughal empire was declining, when there was a shortage of land to be given as jagirs, crown lands were given which resulted in the loss of revenue and hence a weakening economy.
