I have not quite figured out what Mahalwari means, but wikipedia says
Mahalwari was in Uttar Pradesh, and it sounds more like zamindari.
I am very sure that the system in Madhya Pradesh was Malguzari, see this

Ryotwari is right, Sharadjee, to my knowledge. In some places Mal
could mean Mahalwari too. Don't know if Malgujari means the same as
Mahalwari

My understanding is that "Mal" means "Malguzari" and "Ryt" means
"Ryotwari". Different land revenue systems were in vogue during
the British period, and these are two of them.

In the census data for Madhya Pradesh, there are numerous
locations with Mal. or Ryt. in their name. Does anyone know
what this means?
Rail Yard Town maybe? I have no idea about Mal.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
