Dhalbhum, Historical district in East Singhbhum, India

Dhalbhum extends across eastern Jharkhand, encompassing areas near the Subarnarekha and Kharkai rivers within the Chota Nagpur Plateau region.

The Dhal Dynasty governed this region for approximately 700 years, with their rule first documented during British military expeditions in the late 18th century.

The Rankini Devi temple stands as the principal religious site where the Dhal rulers performed ceremonial practices according to local traditions.

The Dhalbhumgarh railway station connects the area to major cities, while National Highway 18 provides road access throughout the district.

The region maintains records of the Chuar revolt of 1766 when Raja Jagannath Singh opposed the British taxation systems in the territory.
