Solution

The correct option is C

None of these


Here all the statements are incorrect because:-

The Khashi uprising was against the East India Company’s project to build a road linking the Brahmaputra valley with sylhet. This resulted into large number of outsides including Englishmen, Bengalis, and labourers from plains were brought to this region.

The khasis, Garos, Khamptis and Singhpos organized themselves under Tirath Singh thus statement 2 is incorrect.

The uprising developed into a popular revolt against British rule in area.

By 1883 the superior English Military force had suppressed the revolt. Therefore no agreement was concluded hence 3rd statement is incorrect.
