The correct answer is: Both (A) and (B).
The Ho tribes declared war against the Raja of Singhbhum and the Raja of Palamu in 1820. The war was caused by a number of factors, including the Ho’s desire for independence, the Rajas’ oppressive rule, and the Ho’s resentment of the British East India Company’s presence in the region.
The war lasted for several years and resulted in the deaths of thousands of people. The Ho were eventually defeated, but they were able to achieve some of their goals, including greater autonomy and the removal of some of the Rajas’ oppressive policies.
The Ho are an indigenous people of India who live in the states of Jharkhand and Odisha. They are a tribal people who have a long history of resistance to outside rule. The Ho have a strong sense of identity and culture, and they have fought for their rights throughout their history.
The Rajas of Singhbhum and Palamu were Hindu rulers who controlled the areas where the Ho lived. The Rajas were often oppressive rulers who taxed the Ho heavily and forced them to work for them without pay. The Ho were also resentful of the British East India Company’s presence in the region. The British had taken control of much of India in the 18th century, and they were seen by the Ho as a foreign power that was exploiting their resources.
The Ho’s desire for independence, the Rajas’ oppressive rule, and the Ho’s resentment of the British East India Company all contributed to the outbreak of the war in 1820. The war lasted for several years and resulted in the deaths of thousands of people. The Ho were eventually defeated, but they were able to achieve some of their goals, including greater autonomy and the removal of some of the Rajas’ oppressive policies.
The Ho’s war against the Rajas of Singhbhum and Palamu is an important part of their history. It shows the Ho’s strength and determination in the face of oppression. It also shows the importance of unity and cooperation in the face of a common enemy.
