| Summary: | The word Jharkhand means a forest track. The thick forest area includes the South Bihar and a few adjoining districts of nearby states. The original settlers in Jharkhand have adapted themselves to the forest ecology. Drawr. into the forces of modernization, their desire for an autonomous state within the Indian Union was officially raised in 1955. But the spirit of the liberative movement goes back to 1769 when the natives fought against the British. Began as a peoples' movement, their philosophy of liberation has become an ongoing struggle, facing many ups and downs. Here the focus is restricted to the emergence of tribal movements in general; against this background the Jharkhand movement is highlighted with its unique features and phases of development. |
