Bhagdar Partner or shareholder of a joint village in some parts of western India. Also called Patidars and Narwadars. Grantidar Person holding land tenure (granti) directly under the government or the zamindars in some parts of eastern India (e.g. Jessore District). In other parts of eastern India, these tenure-holders were known by different names such as
Jatedars in Rangpur District,
Hao-ladars in Bakaraganj District,
Gatchdars in Purnea District and
Mandals in Midnapur district.
These people were mostly big tenureholders who depended considerably on hired labour for the cultivation of their lands. Their origins were largely associated with large-scale reclamation of wasteland particularly during the early part of British rule.
