Answer 1

The British wanted the tribal communities to settle down as peasant cultivators because: 

1️⃣ The British were of the opinion that it is easier to monitor, to administer and to control people who were settled.

2️⃣ They were not comfortable with semi-nomadic people and those who did not have a permanent house.

3️⃣ They also wanted a fixed income.

4️⃣ Settling the tribal communities would ensure a fixed agricultural produce and thus a fixed revenue.
