Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.

Fishing traps, baskets, cradles, bridges, rainproof hats and umbrellas, mats, musical
instruments, water pipes—Indians have always used the bamboo in numerous ways. It is used
for house construction, fencing and in the making of bullock carts. Low-cost domestic
furniture and a vast range of domestic utility items made of bamboo can be easily seen in any
of our bazaars. But we do not easily notice the countless little ways this modest material
comes to be used by rural people. One can see it being used in the blacksmith’s bellows, or as
bamboo pins in carpentry joints or in the fabrication of toys in village markets. But to the
British foresters the multidimensional role that “the forest weed” played in the local Indian
environment was of no account, as it did not figure in forest revenues. Bamboo also interfered
with the growing of teak, an essential part of their colonial forest policy. It was only in the
1920s that the British realised that by mincing bamboo into millimetre shreds, cooking it in
chemicals, pulping and flattening it, they could produce sheets of paper. This would bring the
British increased forest revenue and ‘development’ (as defined by them) to the so-called
backward regions of India. However, they chose to ignore the consequences this activity
would have on the health of the forest. So while bamboo was sold at high prices to basket
weavers, it was heavily subsidised for the paper industry. Even after Independence, supplying
bamboo at extremely low prices to Indian paper mills became a ‘patriotic’ duty of the
government, and bamboo supplies were assured for decades at unchanged prices. The
disaster that this would cause to the forests, and to the craftsperson, still remained
unforeseen.
Colonialism affected forests all across India and marginalised their inhabitants and the
traditional occupations they practised. As late as the 1970s, the World Bank proposed that
4,600 hectares of natural Sal forest should be replaced by tropical pine to provide pulp for the
paper industry. It was only after protests by local environmentalists that the project was
stopped. Colonialism was therefore not only about repression, it was also a story of
displacement, impoverishment and ecological crisis.

environment was of no account, as it did not figure in forest revenues. Bamboo also interfered
with the growing of teak, an essential part of their colonial forest policy. It was only in the
1920s that the British realised that by mincing bamboo into millimetre shreds, cooking it in
chemicals, pulping and flattening it, they could produce sheets of paper. This would bring the
British increased forest revenue and ‘development’ (as defined by them) to the so-called
backward regions of India. However, they chose to ignore the consequences this activity
would have on the health of the forest. So while bamboo was sold at high prices to basket
weavers, it was heavily subsidised for the paper industry. Even after Independence, supplying
bamboo at extremely low prices to Indian paper mills became a ‘patriotic’ duty of the
government, and bamboo supplies were assured for decades at unchanged prices. The
disaster that this would cause to the forests, and to the craftsperson, still remained
unforeseen.
Colonialism affected forests all across India and marginalised their inhabitants and the
traditional occupations they practised. As late as the 1970s, the World Bank proposed that
4,600 hectares of natural Sal forest should be replaced by tropical pine to provide pulp for the
paper industry. It was only after protests by local environmentalists that the project was
stopped. Colonialism was therefore not only about repression, it was also a story of
displacement, impoverishment and ecological crisis.

Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.

Fishing traps, baskets, cradles, bridges, rainproof hats and umbrellas, mats, musical
instruments, water pipes—Indians have always used the bamboo in numerous ways. It is used
for house construction, fencing and in the making of bullock carts. Low-cost domestic
furniture and a vast range of domestic utility items made of bamboo can be easily seen in any
of our bazaars. But we do not easily notice the countless little ways this modest material
comes to be used by rural people. One can see it being used in the blacksmith’s bellows, or as
bamboo pins in carpentry joints or in the fabrication of toys in village markets. But to the
British foresters the multidimensional role that “the forest weed” played in the local Indian
environment was of no account, as it did not figure in forest revenues. Bamboo also interfered
with the growing of teak, an essential part of their colonial forest policy. It was only in the
