Folk songs and dance forms have been developed mainly out of celebrating socio-religious rituals and ceremonies. Songs and dances are integral ingredients of folk theatre. Each folk form has its specific community but their language is same. If we look into the origin and evolution of folk theatre; we have to admit that this theatrical tradition is interconnected with human civilization. Since the Vedic period, people have developed potential artistic qualities like songs, dance and many religious rituals to express their emotions, hope and aspirations. The musicality is one of the greatest characteristics of these folk dramas. The musical instruments used in such folk performances are developed indigenously and are a unique characteristic of these folk plays. Western Odisha is culturally influenced by assemblage of several traditions in several religious rituals. During the last quarter of the twentieth century, research and studies in the area of folk songs and dances along with folk theatre of this region have been revived and recognized, including the modern "Krushnaguru Bhajan", one type of folk lyrics/songs and Danda (Danda Yatra and Danda Nata), which are considered to be a part of the oldest art forms in India.

This popular festival of Odisha marks its beginning from the day of auspicious Full moon and continues for the next seven days. Through this festival, the locals also commemorate the day when sailors of Odisha first crusade to distant lands of Java, Bali, Borneo, Sri Lanka, and Sumatra. To pay their homage, regional people make the artificial boat (made up of paper, barks of the banana tree, and cork) light mud lamps and float it in the water, which is called Boita Bandana.

    PREFACE Bargarh, previously a Sub-Division of undivided Sambalpur District was conferred the status of a district on 1st April 1993 to usher in better and faster service delivery, to bridge the gap between the Government and the governed and to ensure governance at the doorstep. The district owes its name to “Vagharkotta” as revealed by the Rastrakuta inscription of 12th Century AD. This province acquired its present name "Bargarh “during the reign of Balaram Dev, the King of Chauhan dynasty of Sambalpur. Historically, this district as contributed its mite in India’s freedom struggle. Ghess Zamindar Madho Singh, his four sons Hatte Singh, Kunjel Singh, Bairi Singh, Airi Singh and his son-in-law Narayana Singh have become legends of the district due to their extraordinary valour shown during the first war of independence. Similarly, village Panimora has received a special recognition in the history of freedom struggle due to the participation of 42 young men in the Satyagraha Movement of Gandhiji out of which 32 persons were incarcerated by the Britishers. An enthusiastic young girl Parbati Giri of village Samaleipadar showed her bravery inthe freedom struggle, who in the post- independence time is credited with the opening of “Kasturaba Gandhi Matruniketan”, the first ever orphanage of the district at Paikmal. Further, Debrigarh, a peak in the Barapahad hills of Ambabhona block, was used as a rebel stronghold by Lakhanpur Jamidar Balabhadra Deo and the noted freedom fighter Veer Surendra Sai stands as a mute spectator to the first revolt against the Britishin this area. In the post-independence period, Bargarh became the laboratory for different experimentations under the Cooperative Movement in Odisha.
