Advise the Political Agent
Govern the Hill Areas of Manipur
Collect revenue
Suppress dissent
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: a) Advise the Political Agent.
The Manipur State Durbar was a council of ministers created by the British in 1907 to advise the Political Agent, who was the British representative in Manipur. The Durbar was composed of both British and Manipuri officials, and its main function was to help the Political Agent to administer the state.
The other options are incorrect because:
- b) The Hill Areas of Manipur were governed by the British Political Agent, not the Manipur State Durbar.
- c) The collection of revenue was a function of the Manipur State Government, not the Durbar.
- d) The suppression of dissent was not a function of the Durbar.
