“Hostels in Kota, Rajasthan, India commonly use caged ceiling fans to prevent student suicides.”

The evidence indicates that Kota hostels do use iron cages or grills around ceiling fans as a suicide-prevention measure, and the practice appears recurrent rather than isolated. But the strongest official reporting more clearly documents spring-loaded anti-hanging fan devices as the standard intervention. So the claim is broadly accurate, though it overstates how clearly cages are the common citywide norm.

“The Bhil tribal community in Rajasthan staged major armed uprisings against British colonial authorities and Rajput landlords in 1872–74 and 1881–82.”

Bhil communities in Rajasthan did stage armed resistance against colonial-backed authorities and Rajput feudal structures in both 1872–74 and 1881–82, as documented by multiple academic and educational sources. However, the characterization of these events as "major armed uprisings" overstates their scale and coordination. The episodes were geographically fragmented across separate princely states — the 1872–74 Banswara rebellion and the 1881–82 Mewar/Udaipur revolt — rather than a unified movement, and British involvement was indirect through paramountcy over princely states.
