Scope and Content

Consultations of Provincial Council of Revenue, 1774-1778.

Administrative / Biographical History

Dinajpur had no trading connections. It was a district of Bengal that was ceded to the Company in 1765. In 1773 the Government of Bengal adopted a new plan for collecting land revenue. Five revenue divisions were set up, each managed by a Provincial Council of Revenue. One Council was based at Dijnapur. In 1781 the Provincial Councils were abolished and their powers were transferred to the Committee of Revenue at Calcutta.
