Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (b) 1798

Explanation

No authenticated source mentions any “Chauri Revolt” in Bihar. Most probably, the Commission intended to ask about the “Chuar Revolt”. The Chuar Revolt in the then Bengal Presidency continued from 1767 to 1802 AD, and it was at its peak in 1798–99 AD. On this basis, the answer to this question will be option (b).
