Detailed Solution

The Gonds inhabited the large forested region called Gondwana, practised shifting cultivation, and were completely defeated by the Marathas- these are correct statements about the Gonds.
The Gonds were an enormous tribe living in forested regions called Gondwana or “country inhabited by Gonds.” It consisted of smaller clans ruled by individual rajas or rais and practised shifting cultivation. The chiefs of big Gond clans began to rule the smaller clans as the Delhi Sultanate began to fall. It resulted in a gradual centralisation of their administrative system. The Marathas completely defeated the Gonds.
