The concentration of tribal population in the districts is very high.

History of Khunti District Khunti is synonymous with rebellion and struggle since it was historically a center of activity during the famed Birsa m ovement in 1875. Ranchi district was organized into four administrative subdivisions namely sadar, Gumla (1902), Khunti (1905) and Simdega (1915). The place has been in recorded annals of history for its long drawn struggle against the British 5 | P a g e District Mineral Foundation Trust , KHUNTI Annual Report, FY 2016 - 17 under the ae gis of Birsa Munda, the revolutionary hero of Jharkhand. According to Mazunda people tradition (The Munda are a Chota Nagpur Plateau region), King of Chhotangapur Maharaja Madra Munda's son Setea had eight sons. Of these eight greatgrandsons of Madra Munda , the eldest went southwards of Ranchi. He established a Khuntkatti village which he named Khunti. In another story, it is said that the place derived its name from the mythological character Kunti in the Mahabharata. Kunti and her sons, the Pandavas, had spent some time in this place, during their fourteen years of anonymity. This ancient theory has brought fame and glory to Khunti.
