Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

The Tana Bhagat Movement was a tribal religious and social movement that emerged in the early 20th century among the Oraon and other tribal communities in the Chota Nagpur region of India. It was led by figures like Jatra Oraon and was rooted in a syncretic blend of tribal beliefs and Hinduism, emphasizing moral living, rejection of alcohol, and resistance to colonial and missionary influences. The movement was not primarily about caste, land rights, or economic reform, but rather about preserving tribal identity and spiritual autonomy. It was a significant example of indigenous resistance and religious revivalism within the broader context of colonial India.

हिन्दी उत्तर: ताना भगत आंदोलन भारत के छोटा नागपुर क्षेत्र में ओरांन और अन्य जनजातीय समुदायों के बीच शुरू हुआ एक जनजातीय धार्मिक और सामाजिक आंदोलन था। यह जाति, भूमि अधिकार या आर्थिक सुधार के बजाय जनजातीय पहचान और आध्यात्मिक स्वायत्तता के संरक्षण पर केंद्रित था। यह आंदोलन औपनिवेशिक और मिशनरी प्रभावों के विरोध में एक संश्लेषित धार्मिक विरोध था और भारतीय उपनिवेशी इतिहास के व्यापक संदर्भ में आंतरिक प्रतिरोध और धार्मिक पुनरुत्थान का एक महत्वपूर्ण उदाहरण था।
