Answer:

The Indigo insurrection was a farmer movement and subsequent indigo farmers ' uprising opposite the indigo planters that erupted in 1859 in Bengal. Indigo planting in Bengal dates came back to 1777 when it was started to the Indians by Louis Bonnard, a Frenchman.

Explanation:

As an alternative to food crops, the indigo planters convinced the peasants to grow indigo. At a very high profit, they issued loans, named dadon. Once a farmer had taken out such types of loans, he remained in debt all his life before process it on to his family members. The price the planters paid was meagre, just 2.5% of the market price.  

The farmers were not able to make any money through indigo growing. The farmers were completely unguarded from the indigo planters who were reluctant to follow them, then destroyed their land or resorted to mortgages. Under this oppression, the farmers started a revolt.
