Abolition Of The Dual System
The Dual System of administration in Bengal, established by Robert Clive in 1765, separated the 'Diwani' (revenue collection) and 'Nizamat' (police and judicial administration) functions. The abolition of this system in 1772 by Warren Hastings marked the direct assumption of administrative responsibility by the British East India Company.
