Solution
The correct option is C Jhum
The British government gave many
large European trading firms the sole right to trade in the forest
products of particular areas. Grazing and hunting by local people
were restricted. In the process, many pastoralists and nomadic
communities like the Korava, Karacha, and Yerukula of the Madras
Presidency lost their livelihoods. Some of them began to be called criminal tribes and were forced to work instead in factories,
mines, and plantations, under government supervision. Whereas, Jhum was a term used for shifting cultivation in India.
