Habura (caste) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Habura (caste) The Habura are a Hindu caste found in the state of Uttar Pradesh in India. They have scheduled caste status in that state.〔People of India Uttar Pradesh Volume XLII Part Two edited by A Hasan & J C Das pages 582 to 587 Manohar Publications〕 ==Origin== According to some traditions, the word ''habura'' has its roots in the Sanskrit ''hawwa'', which means an evil spirit. Their own traditions make reference to the fact that community are descended from Rajput soldiers. They were attempts to forcibly convert them to Islam, and as a result took refuge into the forests. The Habura then took up a nomadic existence, often also engaging in vagrancy. As a result, the British colonial authorities placed them in the category of a criminal tribe.〔People of India Uttar Pradesh Volume XLII Part Two edited by A Hasan & J C Das pages 582 to 587 Manohar Publications〕 After independence of India in 1947, they were denotified in 1952, when the Criminal Tribes Act was replaced with the Habitual Offenders Act, but the community continues to carry considerable social stigma.〔(Forgotten People ) ''www.downtoearth.org.in''.〕
