The British along with their trade here began to examine the poverty, compulsion, and weaknesses of the people and took advantage of their compulsions.
The British gradually took advantage of the compulsions of the Indians and started torturing them as slaves, and mainly they used to suppress the poor and forced people under their debt. On not paying the debt, they made him their slave and started doing arbitrary work and torture on them. One by one, they took control of the kingdoms and their kings and took control of almost all of India.
Persecution of Indians
During the occupation of India by the British, they started committing atrocious persecution of the people, such as incurring revenue, capturing their fields and grains, etc. Due to this, the people here had to suffer a lot of their atrocities. When they opposed this atrocity, they were gunned down with bullets like the Jallianwala Bagh incident.
