πŸ”† Paika Rebellion

βœ… The Paikas of Odisha were the landed militia (β€˜foot soldiers’ literally) who were involved in performing policing functions for the Gajapati rulers.
βœ… The kingdom of Khurda had granted them rent-free land for the military services that they offered to the kingdom.
βœ… Paika Rebellion of 1817 is an armed revolt against the British by the Paikas of Khurda in Odisha.
βœ… The rebellion took form and shape under the leadership of Baxi Jagabandhu Bidyadhara.
βœ… Soon after taking over Odisha from the Marathas in 1803, the British started to introduce a system of administration that angered the King of Khurda, Mukunda Deva II.
βœ… Many other activities of the British like the introduction of a new currency system, oppression of the Paikas in the hands of the officials of the company, ban on making salt from seawater gave rise to widespread dissatisfaction and hatred against the British.
βœ… The king planned revolt against British in collaboration with the Paikas.
βœ… The revolt enjoyed a great level of support from the Kings of Nayagarh, Kujang, Kanika, Village headmen,
peasants and zamindars.
βœ… Initially, the Paikas seemed to have gotten hold of the battle and saw some victory, but was suppressed by the British in just three months.
βœ… Some Paikas however, fought guerilla warfare against the British yet the revolt was completely suppressed by 1819.
βœ… Therefore, it lasted for a year and a half before being ruthlessly suppressed by the British East India Company’s forces.
βœ… The result of the Paika Rebellion was disheartening as the rebels involved were awarded sentences of death, long-term imprisonment.
βœ… A commission was appointed by the British officials to enquire into the rebellion.
βœ…There were severe uprisings post this Paika rebellion initiated by people from Kandha & Koi region.
βœ… The major issue that prevailed post the Paika rebellion was the revenue policy which didn’t undergo any change.

βœ… Cripps Mission: March 1942

πŸ“ Viceroy at the Time
βœ… August Offer: Lord Linlithgow
βœ… Cripps Mission: Lord Linlithgow

πŸ“ Context/Reasons for Proposal
βœ… August Offer: Britain’s precarious situation in WWII and the need for Indian support.
βœ… Cripps Mission: Japanese advances in Southeast Asia heightened the need for Indian cooperation in the war effort.

πŸ“ Shortcomings Highlighted by Indians
βœ… August Offer: Vague promises; no immediate transfer of power; retention of British control over defense; no clear path to full independence.
βœ… Cripps Mission: Dominion status instead of full independence; allowed provinces to secede, potentially leading to partition; no immediate transfer of power; British control over defense continued.

πŸ“ Reaction of Indian Political Parties
βœ… August Offer: Rejected by the Congress; welcomed by some other groups for its promise of eventual self-rule.
βœ… Cripps Mission: Rejected by Congress and Muslim League; Congress criticized the lack of immediate power transfer and the provision for dominion status; Muslim League was dissatisfied with the lack of a clear commitment to Pakistan.

πŸ“ Outcome/Result
βœ… August Offer: Rejected by Indian National Congress; led to increased demand for complete independence.
βœ… Cripps Mission: Failure; led to the Congress launching the Quit India Movement in August 1942.
