What all were the consequences of British Raj in India ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The British Raj
impoverished millions of people
in India. Our natural resources
were plundered, our industries
worked to produce goods at low
prices for the British and our
food grains were exported.
Many died due to famine and
hunger. In 1857-58, anger at
the overthrow of many local
leaders, extremely high taxes
imposed on peasants, and
other resentments boiled over
in a revolt against British rule
by the sepoys, Indian troops
commanded by the British.
