Explanation: The correct option is (b) strong organization and leadership. The Santhal uprising of 1855-1857, also known as the Santhal Rebellion or Santhal Hool, was characterized by strong organization and leadership. It was a significant tribal uprising led by the Santhal community in present-day Jharkhand, Bihar, and West Bengal regions of India. The Santhals, under the leadership of leaders like Sidhu and Kanhu, organized themselves into a well-coordinated movement against the oppressive British colonial administration and the exploitative local zamindars (landlords). The rebellion involved the mobilization of a large number of Santhal warriors and a strategic approach to confront the colonial forces. The Santhal uprising demonstrated their resilience and determination to fight for their rights and autonomy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
