Explain any 3 reason for the glashes between river and gomasthas |
| Answer» The following were the reasons for the clashes between the gomasthas and the weavers in the villages:\tEarlier supply merchants had lived within the village and had a close relationship with the weavers. They looked after the needs and helped them in case of crisis. The new gomasthas were outsiders.\tThe gomasthas\xa0had no social link with villagers. They had no sympathy with the weavers and acted arrogantly\xa0and marched into a village with sepoys and peons, often beating and flogging them mercilessly.\tThe weavers could not sell their cloth to other buyers because they had to sell to the company due to the loans they took from them. They had to accept the price offered by the company to them, although it was very low. | |
