Solution

The correct option is C Both statements are true and statement 2 was a consequence of statement 1.
Both statements are true and statement 2 was a consequence of statement 1. The British passed laws in the early and mid 19th century allowing Christian missionaries to operate freely in India and also to convert Indians to Christianity to inherit property. All these made Indians feel like the English were trying to promote Christianity at the expense of local faiths.
