In the context of the Bastar rebellion what does 'begar' mean?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Making people work without wages

The direct answer is A: making people work without wages. Begar means forced or unpaid labour. In the Bastar context, authorities or powerful people could demand labour from local inhabitants without giving fair payment. This was exploitative because people's time and physical effort were taken against their will or without wages. Step by step, compulsory work reduced household labour and income, created humiliation and anger, and added to other grievances such as forest restrictions. Option A is correct because it gives the exact meaning of begar. Option B is wrong because opening a school is an educational activity, not forced labour. Option C is wrong because rainfall is a natural event. Option D is wrong because celebrating a festival is a social or religious activity. Remember: begar means बेगार—work taken without wages, often under compulsion.
