"Bhumij speakers still number perhaps over 100,000 but they are rapidly adopting Hinduism and abandoning their ancestral Kherwarian North Munda tongue in favor of a local Indo-Aryan variety." The Bhumij are sometimes incorrectly united with the Mundari and the Munda, despite being ethnically and linguistically distinct.
