Detailed Solution

Bastar people believe each village was given land by the Earth.
Bastar is in the southernmost part of the state of Chhattisgarh. Maria and Muria Gonds, Dhurwas, and Bhatras are among the many communities found in Bastar. Despite speaking different languages, they share the same values and customs. According to their beliefs, each community received its land from the Earth for taking care of the planet through its festival gifts. In addition to the Earth, they revere the spirits of the river, the forest, and the mountain. Since they understand their boundaries, each town respects the natural resources within its confines. They must pay a small fee called 'devs are' if they want to harvest wood from another community. Some towns hire people to guard their forests, and each household contributes grains to the effort.
