Who among the following jagirdar of Bijolia introduced 'Talwar Bandhai tax' ?
Answer: C
The 'Talwar Bandhai' tax was introduced by Prithvi Singh.
Talwar bandhai was the succession fee a jagirdar paid to the Mewar state on succeeding to his estate. When Prithvi Singh became jagirdar of Bijolia in 1906 he passed this burden on to the peasants as a new tax, adding to the many cesses that fuelled the Bijolia peasant movement.
His predecessor, Rao Kishan (Krishna) Singh, is remembered for an earlier levy, the chanwari tax on the marriage of daughters, so he is the trap among the options.
