Uprisings in Palamau (1800-02)
The political situation in Palamau was complicated by the crises of agrarian landlordism and the feudal system.
In 1800, Bhukhan Singh, a Chero chief, rose in rebellion against the British.
Colonel Jones camped for two years in Palamau and Sarguja to suppress the rebellion.
Bhukhan Singh died in 1802, and the insurrection subsequently calmed down.
