Solution

The correct option is B Riyasat
As per the new land settlement agreement the privileges of Rajputas and Brahmins in paying taxes were abolished. As other casts were also dissatisfied with the revenue rates, they all protested under the leadership of Rajputas. Peasants complained to the Resident for the same. The state army started firing suddenly at the crowd which gathered to discuss the revenue rates on the order of army commander Chajju Singh. Around 156 people were killed and 600 were injured. The newspaper 'Riyasat' compared this incident with Jallianwallah Bagh massacre.
