The Dhanbad district has multicultural population. As Dhanbad Their source of living is agriculture and most of them are farmers. They follow both Hindu and Christian belief. They are free from all the modern problems and wear simple dress. On the other hand most of the Hindus and the Muslims sections are following the mixture culture of older and modern age. Basically DHANBAD is improving its political awareness, literacy and other social development to improve its living standards. Most of the part are yet to be developed and caused the emergence of militancy. The Government and the society are geared up to bring them in the main stream. The Geographical condition of the state is also responsible for the less development and the emerging militancy.
