Forced recruitment of soldiers was introduced in the villages by the British during the World War which angered the villagers
Explanation:
- Throughout the war, prices doubled, which led to extreme hardships for the common people between 1913 & 1918. Villages had been requested to provide soldiers, and forcible rural recruitment caused widespread indignation. Crops had failed in several parts of India in 1918-19 and 1920-21. This added to extreme food shortages.
- This was combined with an outbreak of influenza. 12 to 13 million people died in famines and plague, according to the 1921 census. People hoped that after the battle, their troubles could cease. That didn't happen, though.
