Tinkathia System

It ought to be noted that the Champaran Satyagraha had its much older roots in the Indigo Riots of 1859/60 and the Tinkathia-system. Cf.: :de:Indigo-Unruhen --87.148.72.129 (talk) 17:04, 23 May 2009 (UTC) Tinkathia system is associated with the cultivation of Indigo which were used to colour the clothes in 18th and 19th centuries. Since there were no other methods available for dying the clothes at that point of time, Indigo was only used and cultivated in India. Since demand of Indigo increased in European world, British planters wanted Indian peasants to cultivate Indigo at a large scale. To fulfill this demand they enabled a system 3/20 part of land shall be only used to cultivate the Indigo. In Indian land measurement system the lowest unit of land is Dhur (1 Dhur =16.93 square meter). 20 Dhur = 1 Kattha 20 Kattha = 1 Bigha

Out of 20 Kattha (1 Bigha) area of land 3 Kattha was mandatory to be utilised for the cultivation of Indigo and rest area of land will be used for other crops production. Since 3 Kattha of land area became the part of this system gave the name as TINKATHIA SYSTEM.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swapnil7376 (talk • contribs) 23:12, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
