Bhojpuri peoples[edit]

Bhojpuri is an Indo-Aryan language and Bhojpuri is the mother tongue of Bhojpuri people. Moreover, Bhojpuri people belongs to Kashi region, one of the prominent site of Vedic civilisation by Rgvedic Aryan people. So both ethnically and linguistically, these peoples can be grouped as Indo-Aryan people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mywikieditbh (talk • contribs) 10:51, April 22, 2013‎ (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_civilization i hope you can get the source from this page. Mywikieditbh (talk) 07:18, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A> Wikipedia is not intrinsically a reliable source. B> the page you cited doesn't even mention "bhojpuri". I wanted a secondary source that says something like "Bhojpuri people are of Indo-Aryan descent". Mr T ^(Talk?) ^{(New thread?)} 07:44, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're clueless of what you are talking about. Bhojpuri people are actually those peoples who are centered at "Kashi" region. And i don't think, that page doesn't mention of Kashi.

Now, from the two maps provided, it is clear that Bhojpuri peoples belong to or are a part of Bihari people and peoples of Uttar Pradesh.
