What are two reasons the british settlers stayed close to the east coast

This is because there was an easy access to ports for trading.

Permanent settlement was advantageous to British because 11% of the revenue remained with the zamindars and 89% of the revenue was handed over to the Britishers . Britishers get more profit .if the revenue was not payed the zamindars siezed their property .

i feel as if they would both catch on before to long because they would see them to frequent
