ਅਣਵਹਿਂਦਾ

AṈWAHṆDÁ

ਅੰਗਰੇਜ਼ੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਅਰਥ2

s. m. (M.), ) (lit. without working), from "an" negative particle, and wahṇdá present participle of wahn, to move, to work. Hence (1) an extra share of the produce, or extra rent, taken by a landlord when he has cleared the jungle and brought the land under cultivation himself, before letting it to a tenant. Here the share is called Aṉwahṇdá because the tenant did not work at the clearing of the jungle; (2) a share of the crops taken by one who contributes nothing to the labour or working expense: e. g., A lends B money, and instead of getting his interest in cash receives a share in the produce of the land. That share is called Aṉwahṇdá because A gets it without working the land. Again, B mortgages his land to A for a sum of money, but continues to cultivate the land, paying A a share of the crop in lieu of interest, A contributing nothing to the working. The share paid to A is called Aṉwahṇdá.
