They have their own customs and rituals that broadly differ from the customs that are prevalent in the Hindu community. The community has its own language, social customs and a rich cuisine. The community had to migrate in the late 1980’s due to the onset of conflict in the state. They had to live in refugee camps in Jammu where the sanitation facilities were minimal.
