Answer:(C)

The recruitment of the company’s

army in the eighteenth century was

not just building on the existing

traditions of the North Indian

military labour market; those

traditions were being adopted to

British imperial preferences. The

recruitment system for example,

endorsed the traditional British

preference for peasants as best

potential recruits and followed the

colonial stereotypes that

wheat-eating Indians rather than the

rice-eating groups were physically

more suitable for the job, although

such ethnic stereotyping became a

much more important factor in army

recruitment in the late nineteenth

century rather than in the eighteenth.

During the initial formative phase,

Hastings did not want to disturb the

existing caste rules in the affairs of

the army. So the Company’s army

consisted mainly of upper caste

Brahman and Rajput landed peasants

from Awadh and the Rajput and

Bhumihar Brahman peasants from

north and south Bihar-both wheateating

regions. These people joined

the Company’s army because the

pay,

provisions offered by the Company

were much better than those offered

by the regional States, and what was

most important, salaries were paid

regularly. The deliberate policy of

respecting caste, dietary, travel and

others religious practices of the

Sepoys fostered a high caste identity

of the Company’s army. By joining it

many of the upcoming socially

ambitious castes like the Bhumihar-

Brahmans could fulfill their

aspirations for social mobility.

Cornwallis, despite his preference for

Anglicisation, did not disturb this

specific organization of the army,

and as a result, the Company came to

possess a high caste army, which was

prone to revolt when their social

privileges and pecuniary benefits

were cut from the 1820s. As the

Company’s territories expanded to

the west beyond the Bengal frontiers

into the mountainous Jungle Terai, in

the 1770s and then into the Ceded

and Conquered Districts in 1802

there was another attempt to recruit

from among the hill tribes. While in

the plains the Company ran

permanent recruitment centres, in the

hills recruitment was made through

local notables and payment was

offered through the Mughal system

of ghatwali service tenures.

The defeat of the Indian States,

particularly of Mysore in the late

eighteenth and of the Marathas in the

early nineteenth centuries created

another vast reservoir of surplus

armed manpower to recruit from; but

the Company’s army could not

absorb all the disbanded soldiers of
