dc.description.abstract "This paper attempts to follow the Colonial government's efforts to integrate nineteenth-century customary usages in rural Punjab into a system of Customary Law. This was a bid to rule the people by their own laws. Codification of customs and customary usages which regulated common lands in the Punjab villages provides a window to observe the transformation of institutions of self-governance as a result of the modernising influence of the Colonial Government." en_US
