Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The British wanted the tribal groups to settle down and take up farming. Peasants who had settled down were simpler to manage and control than those who were constantly on the move. The British also desired a consistent source of income for the government. So they established land settlements, which involved measuring the land, defining each person's rights to it, and setting the required amount of revenue for the state.
The current statement would be that the British were uncomfortable with mobile tribal groups with no established residence.
