John Shore vs Rajkumari Amrit Kaur

Shore implemented the Permanent Settlement of Bengal, a land revenue system that fixed land taxes in perpetuity. This system created a class of zamindars but led to peasant exploitation and economic stagnation.

John Shore was appointed Governor-General of India. His tenure was marked by a policy of non-intervention in Indian states, contrasting with his predecessor Lord Cornwallis.

Shore's policy of non-intervention was challenged by the Maratha Confederacy's internal conflicts. He avoided direct British involvement, but the situation led to the eventual Anglo-Maratha Wars under his successors.

Kaur was a delegate to the Second Round Table Conference in London, representing Indian women's interests. She advocated for women's suffrage and social reforms in the constitutional discussions.

Kaur was arrested and imprisoned for her participation in the Quit India Movement. She spent several months in jail, continuing her activism for Indian independence.

Rajkumari Amrit Kaur was appointed as the first Minister of Health in independent India. She served until 1957, overseeing the establishment of public health infrastructure and medical education.

Kaur was instrumental in founding the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi, a premier medical institution. She secured funding and support from international organizations, including the Rockefeller Foundation.
