What was the main effect of increased defence expenditure in India during the First World War?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Taxes and prices increased

During the First World War, the colonial government’s defence expenditure rose sharply. To finance the war, it increased taxes and obtained resources from India. At the same time, wartime shortages and disruption of supplies pushed prices upward, causing hardship for ordinary people. Therefore option A is correct. Land revenue was not abolished, free land was not distributed, and British rule did not end immediately.
