Difficulty: Very hardState History and Historical Movements

Arrange the following prominent regional uprisings and historical movements against British colonial administration in Indian state history in their correct chronological order, from the earliest to the latest:

  1. 1First Polygar War led by Veerapandiya Kattabomman in Panchalankurichi (Tamil Nadu)
  2. 2Bhil Uprising in Khandesh led by Sewaram (Maharashtra)
  3. 3Sawantwadi Revolt led by Phond Sawant and Subana Nikam (Maharashtra)
  4. 4Eka Movement led by Madari Pasi in Awadh (Uttar Pradesh)

Answer

The correct chronological sequence from earliest to latest is: First Polygar War led by Veerapandiya Kattabomman (1799), followed by Bhil Uprising in Khandesh (1818), Sawantwadi Revolt (1844), and Eka Movement in Awadh (1921).
The correct sequence follows the exact historical timeline of anti-colonial regional revolts: the First Polygar War took place in 1799 in Panchalankurichi; the Khandesh Bhil Uprising began in 1818 following the overthrow of the Peshwa; the Sawantwadi Revolt erupted in 1844 due to British administrative interference; and the Eka Movement in Awadh was launched in 1921 by Madari Pasi.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the exact execution or outbreak year for each historical movement.
First Polygar War occurred in 1799; Bhil Uprising in Khandesh started in 1818; Sawantwadi Revolt began in 1844; Eka Movement started in late 1921.
Accurate historical timeline retrieval is necessary for establishing regional movement chronology.
2
Sequence the events in ascending chronological order.
1799 (Polygar War) → 1818 (Bhil Uprising) → 1844 (Sawantwadi Revolt) → 1921 (Eka Movement).
Placing dates sequentially satisfies the chronological ordering criteria.
