British forest policies
Exploitative zamindars
High taxes
Religious persecution
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: a) British forest policies.
The Rampa Rebellion was a tribal uprising in the Eastern Ghats of India that lasted from 1922 to 1924. The rebellion was led by Alluri Sitarama Raju, a tribal leader who was inspired by the Indian independence movement. The rebels were opposed to British forest policies, which they saw as exploitative and unfair. They also protested against the high taxes that were imposed on them by the British government. The rebellion was eventually suppressed by the British, but it is still remembered as an important event in the history of the Indian independence movement.
Explanation of each option:
- b) Exploitative zamindars. Zamindars were landlords who were granted land by the British government in exchange for collecting taxes from the peasants. The zamindars were often seen as exploitative and unfair, and they were often accused of taking advantage of the peasants. However, there is no evidence to suggest that the Rampa Rebellion was primarily a protest against the zamindars.
- c) High taxes. The British government imposed high taxes on the people of India, and these taxes were often seen as unfair. However, there is no evidence to suggest that the Rampa Rebellion was primarily a protest against the high taxes.
- d) Religious persecution. There is no evidence to suggest that the Rampa Rebellion was primarily a protest against religious persecution.
