Why did local communities challenge colonial law in the Bastar rebellion even though it was official law?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it clashed with their way of life and sense of justice

An official law is made by a government, but being official does not automatically make it fair in the eyes of every affected community. Colonial forest laws often changed customary access, work patterns and community responsibilities without giving local people an equal voice. When a rule harms daily life and conflicts with accepted ideas of fairness, people may challenge it even though officials call it legal.

Option A is correct because the law clashed with the communities’ way of life and sense of justice. The other choices contradict the situation: the law did not increase all rights, it was not made by the local assembly, and it clearly concerned forests. This shows the difference between legality, meaning official status, and legitimacy, meaning acceptance based on justice and consent.
