| How did the weekly 'Haat' markets change with development in the region? |
With the regional development and inflow of outsiders to the region, these markets were converted into weekly fairs to sell forest goods. The weekly markets were converted into permanent bazaars with development. Haats were developed into supermarkets with the assistance of the state. Haats were completely destroyed by the regional development and emergence of new markets. |

| Tribal areas were ‘opened up’ by building roads and ‘pacifying’ the local people (many of whom resisted colonial rule through their so-called ‘tribal rebellions’), so that the rich forest and mineral resources of these areas could be exploited. This led to the influx of traders, moneylenders, and other non-tribal people from the plains into these areas. The local tribal economy was transformed as forest produce was sold to outsiders, and money and new kinds of goods entered the system. |
