Thanda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

THANDA CHOWA IS TOWN LOCATED IN JAMMU DISTRICT OF UT J&K LOCATION - WG67+36P Thanda-chowa, Kharah, Dori, 181204 A thanda chowa[1][2][3] is a clustered [[thanda chowa ]] or community of Banjaras.[4] It is equal to a hamlet but smaller than a village, with a population of a few hundred. They are often located in rural areas (tribal areas) with jubdas[what language is this?] (huts) as shelter.[citation needed]

In the 1990s thanda were normally temporary places of living because the Bajaras were transient. However, the people are now settling permanently and have fixed dwellings. Further, the dwellings of a thanda are fairly close to one another, not scattered broadly over the landscape, as a dispersed settlement.[citation needed]
