Jharkhand: The Land of Forests & Resistance

Jharkhand’s identity is rooted in the **Adivasi struggle** for dignity and land rights (Jal, Jungle, Jameen). It was the site of historic tribal uprisings like the **Santhal Hool** and **Birsa Munda’s Ulgulan**. While it holds a massive share of India’s mineral wealth (coal, uranium), its core remains its vibrant tribal culture and the ongoing quest for inclusive development. * **Key Themes:** Tribal resistance movements, mineral economy vs. tribal rights, and Chotanagpur plateau geography.
