When was the Bhil revolt started?

The Bhil revolt began in 1818. The Bhil revolt was a result of a series of resentments and dissatisfaction with British East India Company rules. The British taxed the Bhils heavily and even denied them traditional forest rights.

The Bhils rose up in revolt against their British overlords, but the rebellion failed when the East India Company sent its army. In the face of overwhelming firepower the Bhils were forced to surrender to the British. However, in the subsequent peace settlement the British gave back their traditional rights and even exempted them from certain taxes. But this would not be the end of future Bhil revolt, there would be more till 1900
