Role and Contribution of Janjati Communities in Sports in Shaping the History of Bharat

India, also known as Bharat, has a rich tradition of physical culture, games, and indigenous sports that are deeply rooted in its diverse communities. Among these, the janjati (tribal) communities have played a vital role in preserving, practicing, and promoting traditional forms of sports and physical activities. Their contribution not only shaped the cultural identity of Bharat but also laid the foundation for several modern sports disciplines.
