The Chuars lived in Jungle Mahal of north-western Midnapur. Basically farmers and hunters, they also worked as paiks under local zamindars. They received tax-free land instead of salaries.
When the Company imposed huge tax burden on zamindars, they revolted, and the paiks and Chuars joined in. The uprising continued for around three decades from 1768-69 to 1799.
In 1768, Jagannath Singh, the zamindar of Ghatshila or the king of Dhalbhum, first went up in arms, backed by local zamindars, and 50,000 Chuars. The frightened government returned the zamindari to Jagannath.
In 1771, Chuars rose again, led by Dhadkar Shyamganjan. They failed this time.
The third phase of rebellion was in 1783-84 and 1789-90.
The most significant uprising was the Durjol Singh led revolt in 1789-90 which was brutally put down by the government. Prof. Narahari Kabiraj says, “The revolt covered Midnapur, Bankura, Birbhum and Dhalbhum. It was a spontaneous and extensive uprising of poor and lower classes. Peasants were the pillars of this movement.”
