The British were interested in the Khasi Hills because of their strategic location and their potential for trade. The Khasi people were initially resistant to British rule, but they were eventually subdued. The British ruled the Khasi Hills until 1947, when India gained independence.<\/p>\n<p>Option (a), <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a
