Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many of us have heard in our history classes about the religion and pilgrimage taxation policies with respect to the administrations under the Delhi Sultans and Mughal despots. But, with the arrival of English East India Company and the subsequent take-over of most parts of mainland India, they formulated, promulgated and modified civil and criminal laws, including the issue of taxation policies in pilgrimage areas and other religious aspects.This book shows the ideas and experiences by the Company Raj with respect to the subject of religious and pilgrimage taxes, which was prominent in parts of eastern India, particularly in the sacred cities of Puri, Gaya, Allahabad (modern-day Prayagraj), and in parts of south and central India.
