Which tribal community led a significant revolt against British taxation policies in the late 19th century?

Khasis
Dimasa
Nagas
Mizos

The correct answer is: c) Nagas.

The Naga people are an ethnic group indigenous to the Indian state of Nagaland and the contiguous areas of Northeast India and Southeast Asia. They are known for their distinct culture and language, and for their long history of resistance to outside rule.

In the late 19th century, the Naga people revolted against British taxation policies. The revolt was led by a number of Naga leaders, including Rani Gaidinliu, who is considered to be a national heroine of Nagaland. The revolt was ultimately unsuccessful, but it played a significant role in the Naga people’s struggle for independence.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • The Khasis are an ethnic group indigenous to the Indian state of Meghalaya. They are known for their matrilineal society and their unique culture.
  • The Dimasa are an ethnic group indigenous to the Indian state of Assam. They are known for their distinctive culture and language.
  • The Mizos are an ethnic group indigenous to the Indian state of Mizoram. They are known for their unique culture and language.
