Detailed Solution

The colonial government gave vast areas to Europeans planters at cheaper rates.
The British had cleared Indian forests for building ships and railways. They formulated the Indian Forest Act of 1865 to restrict local people from entering the forest and extracting resources. Most of the trees in the forest were cut down by the colonialists. They cleared a very large area to cultivate tea, coffee, and rubber in that area. The colonial government gave vast areas to European planters at cheap rates.
