Question

why did british pass the grazing act state twoways grazing act implemented

Answer 1

The Grazing Act was passed by the British, who ruled India, to increase the government’s revenue.

 

This Act required the farmers who grazed their animals on pastures, to pay a tax on every animal they grazed, to the government. The British government started collecting this tax directly from farmers by the 1880s. The farmers had to get permission for every animal they took inside a grazing land, by paying a tax on every head of cattle.

 

The Grazing Act burdened the already poor farmers that most of them sold their animals.
