1. In Awadh, the talukdars and landlords extracted very high rents and a variety of other cesses from the peasants.

2. The peasants also had to do 'begar' labour for the landlords and work on their farms without any remuneration.

3. There was no security of tenure and peasants were often evicted, in order to deny any opportunity for them to develop a right over the land they cultivated.
