Who they are
The Devangri form a traditional community in eastern India, closely connected to the culture of the state of Odisha. Speakers of the Odia language, they preserve customs passed down through generations within their villages and family units. Their worldview is deeply rooted in local Hindu practices, which shape celebrations and daily relationships, with no visible Christian presence among them.
