Option 1: Permanent Settlement of Bengal - This system was introduced in Bengal by the British. Under this system, the British government fixed the land revenue permanently, and the zamindars (landlords) became the intermediaries between the government and the farmers. However, this system did not provide much protection to the farmers as the zamindars had the power to increase the rent and exploit the farmers.

Option 2: Ryotwari Settlement of Madras - This system was implemented in Madras by the British. Under this system, the individual farmers (ryots) were recognized as the owners of the land, and they directly paid the land revenue to the government. This system provided more protection to the farmers as they had ownership rights and direct control over their land.

Option 3: Zamindari Settlement of Central States - This system was implemented in the Central States by the British. Under this system, a class of intermediaries known as zamindars were given the rights to collect land revenue from the farmers. This system did not provide much protection to the farmers as the zamindars often exploited them.

Option 4: Malgujari Settlement of United Province - This system was implemented in the United Province (now Uttar Pradesh) by the British. However
