Which tribe of Madhya Pradesh is known as Ghotul?

A ghotul is a spacious tribal hut surrounded by earthen or wooden walls. It is an integral part of Gond and Muria tribal life in regions of Chhattisgarh and the neighboring areas in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh in India. It is a place for youths, an independent and autonomous "children’s republic" as described by Verrier Elwin. The ghotul is central to social and religious life in Gond society.
