Chota Nagpur Plateau · Central Highlands & Forest Belt
सीमा-पार सांस्कृतिक गलियारे
वे परंपराएँ जो प्रशासनिक सीमा के पार भी चलती हैं। इन्हें गलियारे के स्तर पर एक बार लिखा जाता है और हर उस क्षेत्र से जोड़ा जाता है जिससे वे गुज़रती हैं — दोहराया नहीं जाता।
Tea Garden Labour Corridor
People, and with them Sadri, jhumair dance, the mandar drum, handia brewing, Karam and Sohrai observance and the sarna. Recruitment from this plateau for the Assam and Dooars tea gardens ran from the 1860s and moved Santal, Munda, Oraon, Kharia and Sadan families in very large numbers. Their descendants form Assam's tea-garden communities and much of the Dooars labour population.
अंतर कहाँ है: In Assam the several languages of origin collapsed into Sadri as a single community tongue and the community is administratively "Tea Tribes" rather than Scheduled Tribes, which is a different legal position from the one their relatives on the plateau hold. Karam and Sohrai are observed there on garden schedules rather than on village ones, and jhumair has picked up Assamese melodic habits.
Ol Chiki and Santali Corridorअंतरराष्ट्रीय
Santali, its Ol Chiki script, the jaher grove, the tamak' and tumdak' drum pair, and the Baha and Sohrai calendar — across the whole eastern Santal belt and into the Nepal Terai and northern Bangladesh.
अंतर कहाँ है: West Bengal and Odisha teach Santali in Ol Chiki alongside Bangla and Odia scripts; Bangladesh's and Nepal's Santals mostly write it in Bangla or Devanagari. Ol Chiki literacy therefore maps administrative borders more than it maps speech.
Chhau Corridor
Chhau — one dance system in three schools, all performed around Chaitra Sankranti, all drawn from a martial movement vocabulary, and all inscribed together on the UNESCO Representative List in 2010.
अंतर कहाँ है: Seraikela uses a small refined mask and a lyrical solo repertoire; Purulia uses a large, high-relief mask and plays Ramayana and Mahabharata episodes with acrobatics; Mayurbhanj dances without a mask at all, which shifts the expressive work back to the face.
Tusu and Karam Corridor
The Tusu observance of Poush and the Karam observance of Bhado, with their song forms — both composed fresh each year, both sung antiphonally by women, and both running across the Kurmali and Khortha-speaking eastern rim into Purulia, Bankura and Mayurbhanj.
अंतर कहाँ है: In Purulia and Bankura Tusu has become a large public fair with competitive chaudal-making; on the Jharkhand plateau it stays more domestic. Karam travelled with labour migration and is now observed in the Assam tea gardens as well.
Sacred Grove Corridor
The practice of leaving a stand of original forest uncleared beside a settlement and seating the community's deities in it, with a named priest, a fixed calendar and a prohibition on cutting.
अंतर कहाँ है: Here it is the sarna or jaher and the priest is the pahan or naeke; in Meghalaya's Khasi hills the same institution is the law kyntang with its own lineage of custodians; in Odisha's Munda and Ho villages it carries the Santal and Ho names. The prohibition is identical everywhere; the theology is not.
Harvest and Marriage Wall-Painting Corridor
Wall painting done by women at two fixed points in the year — harvest and marriage — in local earths, on the walls of their own houses, with motifs shared with much older rock art in the same districts.
अंतर कहाँ है: Hazaribagh's Khovar is combed away rather than painted on and stays on the wall; Mithila's kohbar, for the same marriage chamber, is painted on and has largely migrated to paper and a commercial market. Hazaribagh's tradition holds the geographical indication; Mithila's holds the gallery trade.
Jain Pilgrimage Corridor
The circuit of Shikharji on Parasnath hill with Pawapuri, Rajgir and the Magadh sites — walked and travelled as a single pilgrimage, and served by the same trust network and the same dharamshala system.
अंतर कहाँ है: The Magadh sites sit on the plain and are approached as temple towns; Shikharji is a 27 km barefoot ridge walk, and the difference between the two halves of the circuit is entirely a difference of terrain.
Sal Belt Foodway Corridor
Mahua, sal seed, chironji, tendu, bamboo shoot, wild puffball mushrooms and red weaver ants — the same gathering calendar that runs west through Bastar and south into the Odisha uplands, with rice beer at the centre of the ritual economy everywhere along it.
अंतर कहाँ है: The plateau ferments rice into handia with a compound herbal ranu starter; Bastar brews landa and, uniquely, drinks fresh salfi palm sap. Odisha's Mayurbhanj holds the geographical indication for red weaver-ant chutney; nobody on this plateau has one for it.
