Copyright problems edit
This article includes text taken directly from http://www.jharkhand.gov.in/at-a-glance, which is copyright reserved, and seemingly from print publications as well. From The Nagvanshis of Chotanagpur], page 116, I can see, "Besides this, the emperor also got information of diamonds being found in this area." This text was copied from this reuser, it seems, complete with the error of omitting the word "this". It also duplicates contents from the 2005 book Social Science; History 8 (For one example, the book says, "At the outset, the Santhal rebels made tremendous gains and captured control over a large tract of the country, extending from Rajmahal hills in Bhagalpur district to Sainthia in Birbhum district.") I'm afraid it will need to be reverted or rewritten to address these copying problems, unless we can verify that the content is compatibly licensed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:27, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
