Detailed Solution & Logic
Madras Presidency / मद्रास प्रसीडेंसी
🟢 Explanation
The Poligar (Palaiyakkarar) Rebellion took place in the Madras Presidency of British India. The Poligars were local military chiefs and feudal lords in South India who controlled land and maintained their own armed forces.
When the British East India Company tried to remove their military powers and land rights, heavy resistance began, leading to several uprisings between 1799 and 1805. Important leaders included Veerapandiya Kattabomman, who strongly opposed British authority.
