Solution

The correct option is A 14 December 1899
Birsa declared war on the British on 14 December 1899 when they denied forest tax exemption for Adivasis. The war spread like a wildfire. A bounty was placed on Birsa by the British. On 3 February 1900, the British arrested Birsa with the help of some locals and imprisoned him. It is said that Birsa later died of cholera in June 1900.
