On September 1, 1940, Adivasi fighter Kumuram Bheem and his companions were martyred at Jodeghat, and the location developed a reputation for bravery and courage.

Kumuram Bheem, the popular tribal revolutionary, fought for Adivasi rights and was known for his thoughts on Jal (water), Jungle (forest) and Zameen (land).

[3] Kumuram Bheem was a tribal leader who rose up against Nizam police brutality in order to protect Adivasi rights and forest areas.

Because the steep location has good defence facilities, Bheem has picked Jodeghat as the focal point for combating police forces.

Later, a grant of 25 crores was approved for the museum's construction and development as a hub for tribal traditions in the Asifabad area.
