Detailed Solution

The Gond forest community belongs to Chhattisgarh. The Gond are a significant group of indigenous people who number around two million and are now formally recognised as Scheduled Tribes. The Muria, Bisonhorn Maria, and Hill Maria are three significant Gond tribes that reside in the Bastar region's highlands in southern Chhattisgarh. The last group, which lives in the untamed Abujhmad Hills, is the most segregated. They still primarily employ hoes and digging sticks rather than ploughs in their ancient form of agriculture, known as slash-and-burn (jhum) cultivation on hill slopes. The settlements are frequently relocated, and each clan's collective property includes several village sites inhabited over time.
