Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Dasas and dasyus were Non-Aryans. The term "Aryans" refers to the people of the Vedic Age. The Rig Veda treated the "dasas" and "dasyus" as native Indians who were "non-Aryans" as opposed to "Aryans." The Rig Veda mentions the stories of conflict between the Aryans and the Dasas and Dasyus. The hymn writers occasionally referred to themselves as Aryans and their rivals as Dasas or Dasyus. These were individuals who most likely spoke various languages and did not offer sacrifices. The term Dasa (and its feminine counterpart, dasi) later came to indicate slave.
