From that sence, the interest in knowing the history of Manbhum's freedom struggle has been increased. In 1833, Manbhum district was formed through various setbacks. It was one of the largest districts of India and can be said to be one of the areas of the anti-British war of independence.

Their dedication, self-sacrifice, sense of responsibility, taking risk of life was no less than the national leaders.
