Celebrating Cultural Bonds: All India Matua Federation’s Unforgettable Community Gathering: Pamela Goswami

New Delhi (India), January 3: The recent gathering organized by the All India Matua Federation stands as a remarkable testament to the unity, traditions, and shared values within the Matua community, a sect of AVARNA Bengali Hindus known as Namasudras. Originating from the teachings of Harichand Thakur, who founded the Matua sect of Hinduism, the Matua Mahasangha, headquartered in Thakur’s ancestral village, Orakandi, Faridpur, Bengal Presidency (now in Bangladesh), has been instrumental in organizing devotees and preserving the community’s cultural heritage.

The Matua community, known for its active participation in social movements, has been engaged in advocating for issues such as representation and the implementation of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), 2019. Beyond these concerns, the community has fostered a deep commitment to its values, exemplified through initiatives like the Matri Sena—a women’s organization dedicated to upholding Matua traditions and advancing gender equality, education, and citizenship ideals.
