Bodo Ethnic Group
The Bodo Ethnic Group is an indigenous community primarily found in the northeastern region of India, particularly in the state of Assam. They are known for their rich cultural heritage, which includes traditional music, dance, and festivals. The Bodos speak the Bodo language, which belongs to the Tibeto-Burman language family.
Historically, the Bodos have been agriculturalists, cultivating rice and other crops. They have a distinct social structure and practice various forms of traditional governance. In recent years, the Bodo community has sought greater political recognition and autonomy, leading to the formation of the Bodo Territorial Region to address their aspirations.
