Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The people of Bastar rose in rebellion against the colonial government in 1910. Bastar is located in Chattisgarh and is inhabited by several communities, such as Gonds, Dhurwas, Halbas, etc. They considered the earth to provide them with their villages. They, in return, provided offerings at agricultural festivals. However, they were enraged by the colonial laws regarding the reservation of forests for the government’s use. So, in 1910, they rose in rebellion against the government. They used bows and arrows, mango boughs, chillies, etc. They looted bazars, attacked schools, police stations, etc. However, the rebellion was suppressed by the government soon after.
