hello frnds.
________

● Many several communities live in Bastar such as Maria and Muria Gond, Dhurawas, Bhatras and Halbas. They speak different languages ​​but share common rituals and beliefs
People of Bastar believe that every village was given its land by the earth.

When the colonial government proposed in the year 1905 two-thirds of the forest reserve, and prohibited the cultivation, hunting and collection of forests, the people of Bastar were very apprehensive.

Even before this, the villagers were suffering from additional land rent and recurring demands of free labor and the goods by the colonial authorities.

Though there was no single leader, even then, a person named Ganda Dhur was the leading name in the revolt which happened after that.
In the year 1910, the mango bone, a lump of the earth, chillies and arrows were circulated among the villages. These were known as messages that invited the villagers to rebel against the British.

Every village contributed to the expenses of the rebellion.

The markets were robbed, the houses of the officers and traders, schools and police stations were burned and raided, and the grain was redistributed.

Those who faced the suffering of the villagers were attacked on the methods associated with the colonial state and its oppressive law.
