Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The tribal people were duped by traders and moneylenders during British rule.
The traders sold essential commodities to the tribes at exorbitant prices. The tribes also relied on moneylenders to address their financial needs. They were forced into debt and poverty by the high-interest rates on the borrowed sums. Therefore, the indigenous people formed a negative impression of the traders and the moneylenders. Market and commerce started to represent debt and poverty for the tribal people. A moneylender and a trader became seen as malicious outsiders to them, and they blamed them for their problems.
The given statement would be that traders and moneylenders duped the tribal people during British rule.
