They decided to get labour from the Jhum cultivators.

  • When the British made it difficult for native people to live in the woods, they had a hard time finding labour to chop trees for railway sleepers and carry logs.
  • The colony's officials decided to provide Jhum producers with small plots of forest land to produce.
  • It was given on the condition that individuals living in the villages shall supply labour to the department and look after the woods.
  • As a result, the Forest Service developed forest communities in numerous areas to maintain a steady supply of low-cost labour.
