The Dusadh (also known as Paswan) are a Hindu community generally found in the states of Northern India (Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Bihar, Uttarakhand and Delhi) and few parts of Eastern India (Jharkhand, West Bengal) and Nepal.[citation needed]

Historically a pastoral community, many Dusadhs fought on behalf of the East India Company during the 18th century.[1]
