Overview & History

This coin commemorates the 150th birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda (1875–1900), the legendary tribal freedom fighter, folk hero, and religious leader who led the "Ulgulan" movement against British colonial oppression in the late 19th century. He championed tribal land rights and cultural identity. This issue honors his bravery and sacrifice for tribal empowerment.
