The Bhantu (Sansi tribe) are a Hindu caste majorly found in Central and North western states of India , where they have scheduled caste status. They are one of the many nomadic groups in found in North India .[citation needed
History [ edit ]
The Bhantu claim to be Rajput soldiers in the army of Maharana Pratap , who after his defeat at the hands of the Mughal Emperor Akbar dispersed into forests. There the community took up dacoity and theft. During the period of British , they were notified under the Criminal Tribes Act . Many were exiled to the Andaman Islands . In 1952, they were allowed to return to Uttar Pradesh , and many were settled in Shekhupur village in Badaun District . They are now found mainly in the districts of Moradabad , Kanpur , and Kheri .[1]
Present circumstances [ edit ]
The community consists of eight exogamous clans, the Gaado, Dholia , Cherele, Banswale, Dhapan, Sadheke, Mina and Marwari. Marriages are strictly prohibited within the clans.[1]
The 2011 Census of India for Uttar Pradesh, where they were classified as a Scheduled Caste, showed the Bhantu population as 11,807.[2]
