Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: d) All of the above.
Naga resistance to British rule manifested in armed uprisings, refusal to pay taxes, and non-cooperation.
- Armed uprisings: The Nagas waged a number of armed uprisings against British rule, including the First Naga War (1832-1839), the Second Naga War (1879-1880), and the Third Naga War (1917-1919).
- Refusal to pay taxes: The Nagas refused to pay taxes to the British, arguing that they were not British subjects and therefore not subject to British taxation.
- Non-cooperation: The Nagas also engaged in non-cooperation with the British, boycotting British schools and courts and refusing to participate in British-sponsored elections.
The Nagas’ resistance to British rule was ultimately unsuccessful, and the Naga Hills were eventually incorporated into the British Indian Empire. However, the Nagas’ resistance did help to preserve their culture and identity, and it laid the foundation for the Naga independence movement that continues to this day.
