INTRODUCTION
History:
During our brief stay of 3 days at gumla we got the oppurtunity to visit the museum which waslocated inside the campus of st. Ignatious high school. We got the glimpse of the history,the
culture which was prevalent there;their houses,clothes,ornaments,utensilsetc.we came across
their mythological beliefs.we talked to the local people there and the officials of both non-governmental and governmental organisations.
Long ago gumla was a small hamlet. Fairgau-mela took place once in a year and continued forone week. Here all items of daily use, utensils, ornaments, grains, cattle etc. Were sold &
exchanged. Since there was no other alternative to get the items, people make a long list of items
required during the year and buy them in this mela. People from distant places used to come here
for buying & selling cattle such as cows & bullocks for agricultural purposes. Gradually peoplestarted to inhabit this place. It grew into a village and got the name gumla as a derivative of gau
mela.
During the british rule there was a revolt against the british rule in 1800 ad. Hardly seven years
later in 1807, the oraons in barway murdered their big landlord of srinagar west of gumla. Soon
the uprisings spread around gumla.during british rule gumla was underlohardaga district. In1843 it was brought under bishunpur province that was further named ranchi. In fact ranchi
district came into existence in 1899. In 1902 gumla became sub-division under ranchi district.
During medieval era chhotanagpurregion was reigned by kings of naga dynasty. Baraik
devenandan singh was given right to rule over gumla circle..
On 18 may 1984 gumla district came into existence .sri jagannath mishra then ruling chief

willing to give their children the higher education.they were upset regarding the fact that there
was no such school nearby and if their children wished to study further they would have to goout of their places.the facility of primary education also needed to be improved further.but what
was fascinating was their zeal and enthusiasm to improve their situation.

2002.Also we went to the local market (HATT) to know how a local market operates. After that
we had a interactive session with the local Chamber of Commerce regarding the business issuesin Gumla
Jhargaon-the idea of a model village:
The Gumla administration has embarked on developing more Maoist-hit villages into model onesin the district. It has now stepped up selecting 50 red-infested remote villages to initiate a new
phase of development there. These villages will be developed under the centrally-sponsored
integrated action plan which aims to mitigate naxalite influence.
After achieving success in two selected model villages jhargaon and tilwari in the district, the
administration has selected and developed maoist-hit rural hamlets by starting variousdevelopments, livelihood and welfare measures.
Gumla is among the 33 most extremists-affected districts (meads) in the country.
The changes we noticed in the village after becoming a model village were as follows:-
Village people are doing well in intercropping like plantation of ginger, potato etc. Aganbari became the model of the village Schools are having total 140 students enrolment in the ratio of 60:40 where girls are
leading. The school of the village gives education up to 7-8 afterwards student go the high schools
for the further education. The high school is located outside the village and they have
both a private and a government school. The medium of the education is in the Hindi medium. The educating technique used by the school was appreciable. It is a room to read
programme. The fund for the school is provided by the vibhag. There are three teachers for 140 students. More number of students enrolled in the schools and sanitation improved especially each
house is having sauchalaya facilities.

THE LOCAL MARKET (HATT)
A major source of earning for a majority of Gumla population. Majority traders in the market are old aged people. New population do not desire to work in this local market because of less growth
opportunity. There are few branded products available in the market which they bring from the local
markets of Ranchi.
Majority products they sell are of low quality because of illiteracy and unawarenessamong people.

CONCLUSION
The visit in every sense was fruitful. We came across the rural culture . Some of us visited rural
area for the first time. the pure and serene environment there was fascinating. People were very
nice. They welcomed us whole heartedly.
The visit made us clear the problems of the area. Gumla is a place full of enormous potentialities.The resources have been underutilized , the basic reason for the poor development scenario are:
unemployment, lack of education and health facilities, industries.
However, the situation is changing rapidly the women are actively participating and playing an
important role in the overall development and employment creation in this area our findings out
of the visit also reveal the same.
