Abstract

Social Work is moving forward like a flowing time. With the change of time, new information is being added in different branches of knowledge. Bangladesh has also felt the touch of this change all over the world. Changes have also taken place in the social sphere of the country which is largely inconsistent with the needs of the times and not up-to-date in times of professional development. This research has been kept on the social worker to develop their creativity by acquiring a thorough knowledge of the Munda people in these areas. “Jishu Nam Ashram” and “SAMS” are conducting social welfare work for the development of the Munda people. Without written method, these people have preserved their language, culture, social customs and religious belief in generations. The ‘Singh Bonga' is the main God and they also dedicate ‘Cook-Hen' for the God. Trees, Stone and animals are the objects of worship. They also trust in ghost (Bhut). In ‘Sadri' language, the Munda graveyard is called ‘Masna' and greeting word ‘Johar'. The Pahans remember their homeland in worship. During the fiestas, they serve ‘Haria /Tari'. They are addicted in Rat's meat, Snails, Crabs, Pigs, wild Cats, Civet and Jonra etc
