💡 Solution & Explanation

Gundadhur was the brilliant tribal leader from Poulgud village who mobilized the indigenous communities of Bastar against exploitative forest laws and forced labor during the Bhumkal Rebellion of 1910. The uprising united various tribal groups, including the Murias and Marias, in armed resistance against British colonial administrators and the diwan. Veer Narayan Singh led the revolt in the plains of Sonakhan in 1857 rather than Bastar.
