Answer 1

Dear Student,

The tribals in Andhra Pradesh joined the movement against oppressive British policies that restricted their mobility and entry in the forests affected by the colonial policies as they could not enter the reserved forests, they could not collect fuel wood from forests, were not allowed to graze cattle. They demanded their traditional rights over forests. Here , Alluri Sitaram Raju led the tribals of Andhra Pardesh in their call for Swaraj and non cooperation.
