British colonial policies
Meitei domination
Burmese intrusion
Conversion efforts by Christian missionaries
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: a) British colonial policies.
Rani Gaidinliu was a Zeliangrong Naga freedom fighter who led an armed rebellion against the British colonial government in India from 1929 to 1932. The rebellion was sparked by the British government’s policy of forced labor and land alienation, which had a devastating impact on the Zeliangrong people. Gaidinliu’s rebellion was ultimately unsuccessful, but it played a significant role in the Naga independence movement.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Option b) Meitei domination is not correct because the Meitei people are an ethnic group from Manipur, which is located to the south of the Zeliangrong homeland. The Zeliangrong people have historically had a good relationship with the Meitei people.
- Option c) Burmese intrusion is not correct because the Burmese people are an ethnic group from Myanmar, which is located to the east of the Zeliangrong homeland. The Zeliangrong people have historically had little contact with the Burmese people.
- Option d) Conversion efforts by Christian missionaries is not correct because the Zeliangrong people are a predominantly Christian people. The Zeliangrong people have historically welcomed Christian missionaries and have been open to conversion.
