She was said to be a just and noble ruler. Morni was also a jagir of Raja Mir Syed Muhammad Baquar Ali Khan.In the Morni Hills ilaka, landholding patterns reflected a caste-based agrarian structure. Kanets held the majority share, occupying approximately 60% of cultivated land, followed by Gaur Brahmins with around 24%, and Gujars with about 16%. Holdings were predominantly small, typically ranging between four to five acres, and were chiefly cultivated by the proprietors themselves, indicating a system of direct subsistence agriculture with limited reliance on tenant labor.
