Correct Answer - Option 1 : Akbar

The correct answer is Akbar.

Mansabdari System:

  • Akbar introduced the Mansabdari system in his administration.
  • The mansab rank was not hereditary.
  • All appointments and promotions, as well as dismissals, were directly made by the emperor.
  • Mansabdars were paid either in cash or in the form of assignments of areas of land 
  • Who received pay in cash were known as naqdi
  • Those paid through assignments of jagirs were called jagirdars
  • The lowest rank was 10 and the highest was 5000 for the nobles

The ranks were divided into two:

  • Zat - Zatmeans personal and it fixed the personal status of a person.
  • Sawar- Sawar rank indicated the number of cavalrymen of a person
