The Tani people include the Adi, Apatani, Galo, Mising, Nyishi, and Tagin ethnic groups of India and China. As members of the Sino-Tibetan ethnic group, they speak various Tani languages and primarily reside in the Indian states of Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, as well as the Tibet Autonomous Region in China.[1]
With a population of approximately 2.17 million,[2] the Tani people are among the largest ethnic groups in Northeast India.
The Chinese government categorizes the Tani people under the Lhoba ethnic group.[citation needed]
