Summary

Description
English: Khonds (also spelt Kondha, Kandha etc.) are a tribal community in India. Traditionally hunter-gatherers, they are divided into the hill-dwelling Khonds and plain-dwelling Khonds for census purposes; all the Khonds identify by their clan and usually hold large tracts of fertile land but still practice hunting, gathering and slash-and-burn agriculture in the forests as a symbol of their connection to and ownership of the forest. Khonds speak the Kui and Kuvi languages and write them in Odia script. These tribal were in Delhi to pariticipate in Adivasi Sanskriti Sangam, an attempt to highlight the tribal culture at national level and discuss issues affecting their life and society,. More than 20 tribal teams from different parts of the country participated and , performed their cultural activities in their traditional dresses
