Answer: North India and Pakistan
Notes: A teenage member of the Kanjar nomadic tribe was beaten to death by fellow tribe members in East Champaran, Bihar. The Kanjar tribe is a nomadic group found in North India and Pakistan, mainly in the Indus River valley and Punjab. Historically labeled a "criminal tribe" during colonial rule, they were decriminalised after independence. With about 5,000 Kanjar in Pakistan and more in India, they lack permanent land or shelters and move between communities. Their occupations include hunting, fishing, basket weaving, and entertainment, and they speak several languages, including Kanjari, a language related to Romani.
