Question

Why did the colonial officials allow some villages to come up in the forest?
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The colonial officials allowed some villages to come up in the forests. this was not for free. they required a pass to enter and their entrance was only allowed for a limited time. for this, the pastorals/villagers had to pay a certain amount to get the pass. if they overstayed/ exceeded their time limit, they had to pay fines. these charges provided financial gain to the colonial government, and this was the reason they allowed some villages inside the forest.
