In the spring of 1773, the Tea Act was passed to support the East India Company so that it would overcome fiscal difficulties. This became intolerable act for the people in the American Colonies. In Boston harbour on 16 December 1773, a party of prominent citizens, disguised as Mohawk Indians, and secretly boarded ships that were laden with tea. They threw 340 chests of tea owned by the East India Company overboard. This paved way for further resistance.
