What did Saminists lying down on government land symbolise?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Peaceful non cooperation and opposition to state claim

Lying down on government land was a deliberate form of peaceful resistance. Saminists used their bodies and refusal to cooperate to challenge the government’s claim that it could control and own forest land without accepting customary local rights. Their action did not depend on weapons or violent attack. It communicated that the land was connected with the community and that people would not willingly accept an unjust authority over it.

Option C is correct because it combines the two meanings of the action: non-cooperation and rejection of the state’s claim. Options A, B, and D are unrelated to the protest. The act should not be read as simple inactivity; it was a visible political statement. By refusing compliance peacefully, the Saminists made opposition public while avoiding the description of an armed rebellion.
