Detailed Solution

The Rigveda uses the terms "Dasas" and "Dasyus" to describe the opponent of Aryas.
The Vedic people are referred to as "Aryans." Rajan was the title given to the chief of each tribe. Among the tribe's members, Rajan was picked as its leader. The "dasas" and "dasyus" were considered to be native Indians who were "non-Aryans" as opposed to "Aryans" by the dominant Indological Approach in the Rig Veda. There are 63 poems and 54 hymns between Dasa and Dasyus. The conflict between the Aryans, Dasas, and Dasyus is acknowledged in the conflict narratives of the Rig Veda. The scripture claims that Dasas and Dasyus were idolaters and disobedient to God's laws. The language they use is known as "Mishra." The Dasas and Dasyus were early Indo-Aryan immigrants to the subcontinent before the Vedic Aryans.
