Solution

The correct option is B Both A and R are true and R does not explains A.
Pastoral communities were the age-old owner of grazing lands but, an increase in the population increased demand for food grains, which led to the loss of grazing lands from pastoral communities. These lands were taken over and converted into lands for cultivation.
Uncultivated lands were officially taken over colonial government and given to landlords for their cultivation.
These statements form a different conclusion, and hence reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
