✓

Answer

The working condition for the indentured migrant overseas were:
On arrival at the plantations, the indentured labour found extremely horrible and miserable living and working condition. Working hours were very long and labourers had few legal rights
The different cultural form blended into new forms:
  1. The annual Muharram procession was converted into a riotous carnival called ‘Hosay’ in which workers of all races and religious joined in Trinidad.
  2. The protest religion of Rastafarianism made famous by the Jamaican reggae star Bob Marley is also said to reflect social and cultural with Indian migrants to the Caribbean.
  3. ‘Chutney music’, popular in Trinidad and Guyana, is another creative contemporary expression of the post-indenture experience.
  4. These forms of cultural are part of the making of the global world, where things form different places get mixed, lose their original identity and become entirely new.
