Who they are
The Kotal are a traditional community of eastern India, associated with the Bengali cultural and linguistic context. Historically tied to community services and agricultural labor in rural areas, they preserve strong family bonds and a rich heritage of popular Hindu devotion. With no known Christian presence among them, they remain distant from the gospel message.
