Why would a historian compare rebel violence and colonial repression in the Bastar rebellion?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To understand the power and aims of both sides of the conflict

A historian compares different forms of violence to understand an event in its full political and social context. In the Bastar rebellion, rebel actions and colonial repression were not isolated facts. They were connected with authority, forest policies, local rights, resistance, and the unequal power between the people and the colonial state.

Comparing both sides helps the historian ask who used force, why it was used, what each side wanted, and how the conflict affected local communities. Thus option A is correct. Songs, sea routes, or the age of forests do not explain the causes, aims, or power relations of the rebellion. Contextual comparison gives a more balanced historical understanding.
