Answer 1

Answer:

1. British effort to settle jhum cultivators was not very successful. Settled plough cultivation is not easy in areas where water is scarce and the soil is dry. In fact, jhum cultivators who took to plough cultivation often suffered, since their fields did not produce good yields.
2. Moneylenders charged a high rate of interest from them, pushing them into debt and poverty. Thus, tribals considered moneylenders and traders as evil outsiders.
3. ThePeasant Uprising of Rangpur, Bengal (1783 AD) ... The Uprising of the Bhills (1818-31 AD)
4. ...After independence a lot of tribal land was taken away by forest contractors for development purposes. ... Forest was their only way for livelihood and means of income and so when they realized that their homes, lands and forests were being taken away from them they started resisting for their rights.
5. ...During the late 1880s, Munda began to understand the nature of exploitation meted out by the British against the native tribals. The huge disruption caused by British agrarian policies made an impact on the livelihood of these tribal people, disrupting their usual way of life which was hitherto peaceful and in tune with nature. Not only British economic and political policies but also aggressive religious and cultural policies of the Christian missionaries which belittled the tribal people and their culture acted as fuel for their fight against the British.
