Who they are
The Perumannan are a traditional community of southern India, concentrated primarily in the state of Kerala and speaking the Malayalam language. Historically classified among the Dalit groups, they preserve distinct customs and strong community bonds. Despite living in a region with an ancient Christian presence, they remain without local faith communities among their own families.
