Hari Oraon (Ranchi University, India)

Paper short abstract:

Every community, either it is a big or small has its own socio-cultural system for the governance of the society to keep the community people in order. Parha is the largest social organisation among the tribal and indigenous community people such as Oroan, Munda & other community which are inhabited & living together for centuries. Impact of one culture over other is the continuous phenomenon. The Parha system has its territorial jurisdiction which includes a number of villages which appears to be the traditionally grouped to form a Parha . there are so many Parhas in community groups which have adhered the faith on this system. It has the socio-culture importance and people have faith on the governance of the Parha. The governance of Parha is the socio-political nature. The political judiciary and bureaucratic governance, decision making process and punishment are the traditional features. The traditional system has began to loose ground due to the impact of Panchayat system promulgated by the Govrnment Panchayat. Traditional and governmental panchayat have contradiction in many ways. These are the things to be studied carefully.
