Question

Write a note note about the peasant revolt during the Mughal period

Answer 1

The major cause of revolts against the Mughal Empire during the latter half of the 17th century was economic rather than religious.

Many subjects rebelled against Aurangzeb’s policies, among them his own son, Prince Akbar. In 1667, the Yusufzai Pashtuns and in 1669, the Jats around Mathura revolted.
