Answer:
6. In the British period, what new opportunities opened up for people who came
from castes that were regarded as "low"?
Answer
The British period saw the rise of the cities. Many of the poor living in the Indian
villages and small towns at the time began leaving their villages and towns to look
for jobs that were opening up in the cities. As the cities were growing, there was a
great demand for labour - labour for digging drains, laying roads, constructing
buildings, working in factories and municipalities, etc. This demand for labour was
met by the population migrating from the villages and towns. There was also the
demand for labour in the various plantations, both within the country and abroad.
The army too offered opportunities for employment.
Many of these migrating people belonged to the low castes. For them, the cities
and the plantations represented the opportunity to get away from the oppressive
hold that upper-caste landowners exercised over their lives and the daily
humiliation theysuffered.
