Comprehension:Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.They say that the colour of revolution is red. Not always. Sometimes, it’s blue. It was the summer of 1859 in Bengal when thousands of ryots (peasants) refused to grow indigo for the European planters (owners of land and indigo factories). It was a show of rage and undying resolve. It became one of the most remarkable peasant movements of Indian history. It came to be called the Neel Bidroha or the Indigo Revolt.Indigo was being cultivated in Bengal since the end of the 18th century. It was practiced mainly in two forms, the Nij-abad and the Ryoti. In the Nij or ‘own’ system, the planter produced indigo on lands that he directly controlled. In the Ryoti cultivation, the ryots cultivated indigo on their own lands as part of a contract with the planters. Ryoti was the predominant form of indigo cultivation in Bengal. The ryots sowed indigo under a contract system. It extended to a period of either one, three to five or ten years. At the inception of the contract, the planter made an advance payment to the ryot to meet the expenses of cultivation. In return, the ryot agreed to cultivate indigo on his land. The system of indigo cultivation was inherently exploitative. Emerging in 1859 in the Nadia district, the Bidroha spread to in different districts of Bengal in the 1860s. The peasants attacked indigo factories with spears and swords. Planters who demanded rent were beaten. Even women participated by fighting with pots and pans. It was especially powerful in the Pabna district where the ryots vehemently refused to sow indigo. SubQuestion No : 8Q.8 Read the given sentences.A. The system of Ryoti in indigo plantation was such that it exploited the peasants.B.
