Answer 2

Causes of Bastar rebellion:

In 1905, the colonial government proposed to reserve two-thirds of the forest and stop shifting cultivation, hunting and collection of forest produce.
Some villages were allowed to stay on in the reserved forests on the condition that they worked free for the forest department in cutting and transporting trees, and protecting the forest from fire.
People of other villages were displaced without any notice or compensation.
Villagers had been suffering from increased land rents and frequent demands for free labour and goods by colonial officials.
The terrible famines came, in 1899-1900 and again in 1907-1908 made the condition worst ultimately turned in rebellion.
Consequences of Bastar rebellion:
In a major victory for the rebels, work on reservation was temporarily suspended.
The area to be reserved was reduced to roughly half of that planned before 1910.
