Solution

The correct option is B village
The Indian Forest Act of 1865 gave the British control over Indian forests. It was amended twice, once in 1878 and 1927. Under the amendment of 1878, forests were categorised into reserved, protected, and village forests. Villagers were allowed to gather resources from the village forests.
