independent. The intrusion of the British was resisted strongly in Bastar by the tribals and the Halba rebellion which lasted nearly five years (1774-1779), which was the first documented rebellion against the British and Marathas in Bastar. In the 19th century, Bastar was taken over by the Bhosle Maratha rulers of Nagpur. When Nagpur fell to the English in 1853, British rule extended to Bastar by default. The district was included under the Madras presidency and later the Eastern States Agency. In 1861, it was included in the Central Provinces and Berar. Pravir Chandra Bhanj Deo (1929–1966), the 20th and the last ruling head of the Bastar state, ascended the throne in 1936 before it acceded to India in 1948 during the political integration of India. After the reorganisation of the states in 1956, it formed a part of Madhya Pradesh. Since 2000, when Chhattisgarh became a separate state, Bastar has become a part of it. 1.3 Origin of name It is believed that Chhattisgarh takes its name from the 36 ancient forts in the area (chhattis/thirty-six and garh/fort). The old state had 36 demesnes (feudal territories). portion of present eastern Chhattisgarh was part of the Sambalpur Kingdom of Odisha. There are two explanations regarding the etymology of the name Bastar. According to mythological tradition, Goddess Danteswari of Kakatiya kings helped Annama Dev, brother of the last Kakatiya King, Pratapa Rudra Deva (1290-1325 AD) from Warangal to spread the kingdom by acquiring land by spreading her garment (vastra) over a vast area. Hence, the name Bastar has been derived from the word vastra of Goddess Danteswari. Another explanation is that some believed that the name is derived from the word ‘vistrit’ meaning vast, as it was the largest district in Madhya Pradesh. Kondagaon’s ancient name was Kondanar. It is said that the Marar people were going somewhere in a carriage, and the vehicle was stuck in the vines of tubers, while coming from the old Narayanpur road near the present Gandhi Chowk of Kondagaon. It is said that their chief had a dream while resting there at night. In his dream, the Goddess gave him a commandment to settle down there. Seeing that the land of that place is very fertile, he thought that settling there as directed by the Goddess is the right thing to do. At that time he was introduced to the kaandanar (tuber’s coconut base), which later became Kondanar/Kondagaon. Another view, more popular with experts and historians, is that Chhattisgarh is the corrupted form of Chedisgarh which means Raj or “Empire of the Chedis”. In ancient times, the Chhattisgarh region had been part of the Chedi dynasty of Kalinga, in modern Odisha. In the medieval period up to 1803, a major 24
