Answer 2

The indentured labourers lived in harsh working

conditions and had few legal rights. On arrival at

the plantations, labourers found conditions to be

different from what they had imagined. They had

to work like bonded labour. If anyone wanted to

run away, he was caught and severely punished.

Thus, 19th century identured labour has been

described as the ‘new system of slavery’.
