Explanation:
Following riots in Deccan (1875) the Deccan Riots Committee was appointed by the Bombay government to investigate the causes. The Commission produced a report which was presented to the British Parliament in 1878. This report, referred as the Deccan Riots Report, provides historians with a range of sources for the study of riots.
The Committee reported that the government's demand was not the cause of peasant rage. It was due to the moneylenders. This argument is found in colonial records very frequently. The report showed that the colonial government was reluctant in admitting that public dissatisfaction was ever caused by government action.
