The Biswedari Abolition movement in Punjab aimed to end the zamindari system. The zamindari system was a system of land tenure in which large landowners, known as zamindars, held control over large tracts of land. The zamindars were responsible for collecting taxes from the peasants who worked the land, and they often exploited the peasants by charging them high rents and taking a large share of the crops. The Biswedari Abolition movement sought to end the zamindari system and give the peasants more control over their land.

Bonded labor is a system in which people are forced to work against their will in exchange for food, shelter, or other basic necessities. The Biswedari Abolition movement did not address the issue of bonded labor.
