Hi
Please, how exactly do you write this word in the modern language? I can't find it in a dictionary. As the article says, alternative English spellings are raiyat, rait & ravat.

रैयत
As it is mentioned in wikipedia : "A raiyat was defined as someone who has acquired a right to hold land for the purpose of cultivating it, whether alone or by members of his family, hired servants, or partners. It also referred to succession rights"
but in some parts overall population of the kingdom was also called "Raiyat" because in earlier times most of the people were dependent of agriculture.
However in the modern india it is mostly used in legal documents. You can check web reference below.

Basically it is an Arabic word with sound like RAYIYYA (रा'अय्यिया) after that Urdu picked that word as RAIYAT (र'अय्यियत).
