The Kudmi[a] are a community in the states of Jharkhand, West Bengal and Odisha of India. They are primarily agriculturalist.[1]
Classification
Kudmi were classified as a Notified Tribe by the British Raj under the terms of the Indian Succession Act introduced in 1865 as they have customary rules of succession.[2][page needed][citation needed] Kudmi of Chotanagpur are different from Kurmi of Gangetic plain.[3] According to Mahanta (2003) kudmi follow totemism which stamps them as Dravidian descent and resembles to Dravidian tribe around them according to book The Tribes and Castes of Bengal (1891) written by Herbert Hope Risley.[4][5][6][7] Subsequently, in 1913, they were classified as a Primitive tribe. Then they were omitted from the list of communities listed as tribes in the 1931 census.[8]
They were not in the list of the Scheduled Tribe drawn up in 1950. They are included in the list of Other Backward Class in the States of Jharkhand, West Bengal and Odisha.[9] In 2004, the Government of Jharkhand recommended that they should be listed as a Scheduled Tribe rather than Other Backward Class.[10] The Tribal Research Institute of Government of India recommended against this proposal, claiming they are a sub-caste of the Kunbi and thus different to tribal people.[11][12][13] Therefore, In 2015, the Government of India refused to approve the recommendation of Jharkhand government to list the Kudmi Mahato as Schedule Tribe.[13]
The language of Kudmi is Kurmali. But according to study, Kurmali language have vocabulary which is neither Dravidian not Austro-asiatic. The Kudmi people once spoke a distinct language, neither Munda nor Dravidian but also not Indo-Aryan, and at some point switched to the regional Indo-Aryan lingua franca of that time, leaving a distinct substrate in their new language.[14][15]
In April 2023, Kudmi organization of West Bengal and Jharkhand were doing rail blockage and demanding ST status.[16] But different tribal outfit were against their demand.[17][18]
Culture
The traditional occupation of Kudmi is agriculture. Kudmi are divided into many clans or gusti including Hindoiar, Bagh Banuar, Naguar, Punoriar, Bangsoar, Sankhuar, Kanbindha, Katiar, Dumriar, Karuar etc.[13][19][20]
Bari Puja/Mansa Puja, Karam, Chait Parab, Jitiya, Bandna, Tusu are the major festival of Kudmi. They worship Budhabaap in madapthan and Garam at garamthan. Jhumar and Chhau are their folk dance.[21][22]

The Kudmi Mahato community played a role in various rebellions in India's freedom struggle. From the Chuar Rebellion to the Quit India Movement, many Kudmi Mahatos were martyred. Raghunath Mahato was a notable leader of the Chuar Rebellion in India's freedom struggle against the British. The rebellion he waged against the British is known as the Chuar Rebellion.

In addition, Kanka Mahato, Rajani Mahato, Suchand Mahato, Kalicharan Mahato, Gopinath Mahato, Kalia Mahato etc. led the Medi Movement of Orissa.

Another remarkable thing is that the Kurmis of Chota nagpur have no sub-division, no sub-caste or even no sub groups. This singleness of the unity of the community totally differentiates it from the Kurmis of Bihar who are divided into sub-castes, e.g., the Awadhia, Ghamaila, Kochaisa, Dhanuk, Joshwar, Sindriya, etc. This lack of division singularly confirms that the Kurmis of Chotanagpur have migrated somewhere from central part of India, where they have their original kinsmen, Kunbis. .. The totemistic organization of the Kurmis further indicate that Kurmis of Chotanagpur are distinct and different from the Kurmis of North Bihar who have titular gotras.
