What was the main feature of rules imposed on plantation workers?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It was difficult to leave the plantation without permission
A major feature of plantation labour regulations was the restriction on workers’ movement. Under colonial rules, including the Inland Emigration Act, workers generally needed permission to leave the tea plantations and return home. Therefore option A is correct. The remaining options contradict the exploitative conditions: workers could not freely change jobs, had no full political rights, and did not consistently receive high wages.
