Till recent times scholars were busy, mainly, in tracing the political history of the different regions under the rule of different dynasties and Northern they devoted small sections in their work to the study of the Socio-Economic conditions. However, there are some scholars who focussed their attention on the Socio-Economic history of particular region. The works Socio-Economic Life of Northern India, Socio-Economic History of N India by S. Das, B.P. Majumdar respectively, are to be included in this category.
