Detailed Solution

The Tribal chiefs functioned under the Britishers.
Tribes were led by tribal chiefs, who had a variety of authority and were responsible for carrying out significant duties. However, the following ways in which their duties were altered as a result of Colonial rule:
1)      Although they were permitted to maintain their ownership of the land that covered the collection of settlements, the British took control of their administration.
2)      They had to follow the rules established by the British.
3)      They were forbidden from carrying out their normal duties.
4)      The power of tribal chiefs over the communities and tribe members was lost.
5)      To represent the British, they were compelled to salute them and govern the tribe.
