Validate
Solution:
Indigo planting started in Bengal as early as 1777.
It was first planted by one British Louis Bonard.
When the British Power expanded, the Indigo planting was emphasized because of the high demand for the Blue Dye in Europe.
The peasants were compelled to plant Indigo rather than the food Crops.
The peasants were provided loans called 'dadon' for indigo planting which was at a very high-interest rate.
Indigo farmers received very low returns for their crops.
The land under Indigo degraded the land for cultivation of any further crop.
The contract conditions under which Indigo planters kept the cultivators were harsh.
The loan made the people indebted and resulted in a rebellion.
