A True
B False

Answer 1

Hint:
• Indigo development was finished by the ryots.
• The ryotis needed to develop rice however in this framework the ryotis had to develop indigo on the best soil which depleted quickly with the goal that the land was left decrepit and no food crops were developed.

Complete answer:
Under the ryoti framework, indigo development was finished by the ryots. The grower made the ryots to sign an agreement or an understanding (satta). Here and there, they pressurized the town headmen to sign the agreement in the interest of the ryots. In the wake of marking the agreement, the ryots got loans from the grower. In any case, in the wake of taking the credit, the ryot was resolved to develop indigo on at any rate 25% of his territory holding. Seeds and penetrates were given by the grower. The cultivators arranged the dirt, planted the seed and took care of the harvest.
However, the grower purchased indigo at low costs and consequently the ryots were consistently paying off debtor’s trap.

Therefore, the correct answer is A

Note:
1) The indigo creation fell in Bengal, after the revolt. The grower currently moved their activity to Bihar. Disclosure of engineered colours in the late nineteenth century seriously influenced the business. Yet, the grower figured out how to extend creation.
2) At the point when Mahatma Gandhi got back from South Africa, the predicament of indigo ranchers in Champaran was brought to his notification. Mahatma Gandhi visted Champaran in 1917 and started the development against the indigo grower.
