The Rabha people are a Tibeto-Burmese ethnic group who live mostly in the Northeast Indian state of Assam, with a lesser population in the adjacent state of West Bengal.[5] They primarily inhabit the plains of Lower Assam and the Dooars, while some are found in the Garo Hills. Outside of India, they have a presence in Bhutan, with communities in nine districts.[6] Most of the Rabhas of Dooars refer to themselves as Rabha, but some of them often declare themselves as Kocha.[7]
