This critical literature review delves into the rich cultural tapestry of the Bhil community, India’s second-largest tribal group, with a focus on their art, traditions, and cultural preservation. The exploration spans regions in Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Maharashtra, emphasizing the distinctiveness between Bhil’s in Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh, and Choti Undri and Badi Undri near Udaipur in Rajasthan.
