Answer : 1. "झारखंड"
Explanation :

January 1, 1948 saw a massacre of tribals by the police in Kharsawan city of present-day Jharkhand. This happened during the protest against the merger of the Kharsawan princely state into the state of Odisha. Thousands of protesters and local people had gathered there to listen to the speech of Jai Prakash Singh Munda. However, he could not reach the venue and was fired upon by the police on the restive crowd, killing hundreds. This massacre is being seen as reminiscent of the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy. The exact number of deaths remains disputed, with official estimates ranging from 35 to unofficially a few thousand.
