Dacoity

Dacoity is a term used for "banditry" in Hindi, Kannada and Urdu. The spelling is the anglicized version of the Hindustani word and as a colloquial Anglo-Indian word with this meaning, it appears in the ''Glossary of Colloquial Anglo-Indian Words and Phrases'' (1903).〔HereThe genesis of dacoity (robbery by a gang ) in Chambal valley (India ) has been a popular theme too (Bhaduri, 1972; Khan, 1981; Jatar, 1980; Katare, 1972). Again, most explanations have simply suggested feudal exploitation as the cause that provoked many people of this region to take to arms. The fact that many gangs operating in this valley were composed of higher castes and wealthy people appears to suggest that feudalism may only be a partial explanation of dacoity in Chambal valley. (Defined by Arvind Verma, in Jul-Dec 2008) "Anglo-Indian" refers to the language, or linguistic usage. See Yule, Henry and Burnell, Arthur Coke (1886) ''Hobson-Jobson: A Glossary of Colloquial Anglo-Indian Words and Phrases, and of Kindred Terms, Etymological, Historical, Geographical and Discursive'' J. Murry, London; reprinted 1903; see page (page 290 ) of the 1903 edition for "dacoit".〕 Banditry is criminal activity involving robbery by groups of armed bandits. The East India Company established the Thuggee and Dacoity Department in 1830, and the Thuggee and Dacoity Suppression Acts, 1836–1848 were enacted in British India under East India Company rule. Areas with ravines or forests, such as Chambal and Chilapata Forests, were once known for dacoits.
==Etymology==
The word "dacoity" is the anglicized version of the Hindustani word ''ḍakaitī'' (historically spelled ''dakaitee'', Hindi डकैती or Urdu ڈکیتی or Bengali ডাকাতি), which comes from ''ḍākū'' (historically spelled ''dakoo'', Hindi: डाकू, Urdu: ڈاکو, meaning "armed robber") or Bengali ''ḍakat'' (ডাকাত).
In Urdu, ''ḍākū'' ڈاکو is singular and ''ḍakait'' ڈکیت plural for bandits. The crime of banditry is known as ''dakaitee'' ڈکیتی.
In Hindi dacoity (Hindi: डकैती ''ḍakaitī'', Urdu: ڈکیتی ''ḍakaitī'', (ベンガル語:ডাকাতি ''ḍakati'')) means "armed robbery".
In Tamil Nadu, the crime of banditry is known as "Dakalti".
The term dacoit (Hindi: डकैत ''ḍakait'', Urdu: ڈکیت ''ḍakait'', (ベンガル語:ডাকাত ''ḍākāt '')) means "a bandit", according to ''OED'' ("A member of a class of robbers in India and Burma, who plunder in armed bands.") Dacoits existed in Burma as well as India, and Rudyard Kipling's fictional Private Mulvaney was hunting Burmese "dacoits" in The Taking of Lungtungpen. Sax Rohmer's criminal mastermind Dr. Fu Manchu also employed Burmese dacoits as his henchmen. The term was also applied, according to ''OED'', to "pirates who formerly infested the Ganges between Calcutta and Burhampore".
"Known Dacoit" (K.D.) is a term used by the Indian police forces to classify criminals.
The dacoity have had a large impact in the Morena and Chambal regions.
