Who they are
The daryadasi are an indigenous people of India, speaking the bhojpuri language, common in the plains of the Ganges. They live out their faith within Hinduism, which deeply shapes the identity and customs of the community. Little known outside their region, this small group maintains its own traditions and a strong sense of local belonging, remaining today among the peoples still unreached by the gospel.
