Rebellion in the Forest

In this Class 9 History topic from “Forest Society and Colonialism,” students examine how colonial forest laws, commercial logging, and restrictions on shifting cultivation and forest use disrupted the lives of tribal and forest-dependent communities. They learn why people resisted these policies, with special attention to the Bastar Rebellion of 1910, and understand how local beliefs, customary rights, leadership, and collective action shaped opposition to colonial rule.
