{'khalisa': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'villages': [2, 0, 3, 14], 'territorial assignment': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'land': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'inam': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'income': [0, 3, 0, 0], 'rebellious territory': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'mauza': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'term': [28, 1, 9, 27], 'mansabdars': [1, 1, 1, 4], 'jagir': [1, 0, 2, 2], 'state treasury': [0, 0, 0, 2], 'meaning': [1, 0, 0, 16], 'salary': [3, 2, 3, 4]}

The question asks us to identify the pair of term and meaning that is NOT correctly matched.

Option 1 pairs the term "Khalisa" with the meaning "Villages whose income went directly to the State Treasury." Khalisa refers to land that is directly controlled and managed by the state. So, this pair is correctly matched.

Option 2 pairs the term "Mauza" with the meaning "Rebellious territory." This pairing is incorrect. Mauza refers to a revenue collection unit or a cluster of villages, and does not specifically refer to rebellious territory.

Option 3 pairs the term "Inam" with the meaning "Land allotted to learned and religious man." This pair is correctly matched. Inam refers to a land grant or a gift of land, often given to religious or learned individuals.

Option 4 pairs the term "Jagir" with the meaning "Territorial assignment given to Mansabdars in lieu of salary." This pair is also correctly matched. Jagir refers to a land grant given to a Mansabdar (a member of the Mughal bureaucracy) as a form of payment or compensation.

Therefore, based on the definitions provided, option 2 is the one that is NOT correctly matched.
