Bengali Hindus (Bengali: বাঙালি হিন্দু) are ethnic Bengali adherents of Hinduism, and are native to the Bengal region of the Indian Subcontinent. Bengali Hindus speak Bengali, which belongs to the Indo-Aryan language family and adhere to the Shakta and Vaishnava traditions of their native religion, Hinduism. The Bengali Hindu population is mainly concentrated in the Indian state of West Bengal, where they are in majority and in Bangladesh, where they are the second-largest group just after Bengali Muslims. Bengali Hindus also form a majority of 60% in the Indian state of Tripura, due to mass migrations from East Pakistan and Bangladesh in the latter half of the 20th century. There are significant numbers of Bengali-speaking Hindus in many states of India, including Assam, Karnataka (especially in the capital of Bangalore), Meghalaya, Jharkhand, Odisha, and the Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. There is also a diaspora.
