dear friend here's your #answer :

The Kol Rebellion (1832)
introduction :

The Kols are tribal inhabitants of the Chota Nagpur region, part of Bengal Presidency during the British rule in India. They comprised of the Kols, Bhils, Hoes, Mundas and Oraons tribes. The Kols feared that their independence would be threatened by the Britishers and so, in order to resist the British invasion, the Kols rose in rebellion in 1831. The leaders of the rebellion were Buddhu Bhagat, Joa Bhagat and Madara Mahato.

Step of Story :
In 1820, the king of Porhat agreed to pay huge taxes to the British government, but the Kols refused the agreement and broke into a rebellion. The British showed their support to the King by sending in troops in order to suppress the rebellion. The Kols with their traditional bows and arrows faced the British troops armed with modern weapons. Even though they put up a brave fight, the British succeeded to suppress them in no time. The traditional weapons could not match up with the British army’s sophisticated modern weapons. The Mundas then joined the Kols in this rebellion.
The main cause of the Kol rebellion was due to the exploitation and oppression faced by the locals in the hands of other non-tribals. The local tribes were looked down upon and they also found the non-tribals, zamindars and other British agents encroaching their territories and threatening their dominance. The Kols thus rose in rebellion against the government officers, merchants and money lenders. They burned houses and killed the enemies, mainly outsiders by adopting cruel tactics and sparing no one. The rebellion continued for two years until they lost to the modern weapons of the British troops. Thousands of men, women and children were killed by the time the rebellion was suppressed.

Dear I hope it will helps you. Tq. if the answer able to get brailiest mark. please make it
