The Bastar Rebellion, also known as the bhumkal (earthquake) was an Adivasi rebellion in 1910 against the British Raj in the princely state of Bastar in central India. It was led primarily led by Gunda Dhur, a tribal leader, as well as by a diwan and cousin of the king, Lal Karendra Singh. The tribals mobilized, which led to the entire state rising in revolt against the British, overwhelming the small 250-strong police force in the state, and was marked by widespread rioting, looting and arson. By the end of February, however, additional troops from neighbouring Jeypore and Bengal had quelled the revolt and arrested the leaders.[1]

The primary cause of the rebellion, as was later discovered by several government reports examining the cause of the riots, was oppressive British forest policies. The British had begun reserving forests, which only allowed certain corporations to exploit forest resources. This resulted in the barring of tribals from using the forests for their livelihoods, and oftentimes, the displacement of entire villages, which led to massive resentment against the British.[1]

However, the British, and the post-Independence Indian state, continued to reserve forests and displace tribals from their lands. The continuation of these policies, which have had a detrimental impact on Adivasi livelihood, has been a powerful factor for the intense Naxalite insurgency in the Bastar division of Chhattisgarh and the continuing tribal support to it.[1]
