Solution
The correct option is B their own Before the arrival of the British, in many areas the
tribal people were important people and they treated the forests as their own. The life of tribal groups was directly
connected to the forest. They enjoyed a
certain amount of economic power and had the right to
administer and control their territories. In some places
they had their own local rules
of land and forest management.
