In Bangladesh, there have 50 (also have a debate on the exact number) small ethnic groups; Santal is one and the historically migrated and settled in Bangladesh, according to leading ethnographic studies (Debnath, 2010; Ali, 1998 ; Ali 2002[1980]), concomitantly an Indigenous and marginalized community in Bangladesh. Along with this, a heated debate on naming, per se, recognizing, identifying and addressing the Indigenous people in Bangladesh, for example, Tribal, Minority, Small Ethnic Groups, Upajati, Adivasi, Primitive, Khudra Nre-Goshti. This group socio-economically is marginalized, and now they are virtually intending to unite on social media to express themselves following the westernization (Srinivaas, 1956 AU53: The in-text citation "Srinivaas, 1956" is not in the reference list. Please correct the citation, add the reference to the list, or delete the citation. ). This group is numerically minority to the rest of the population of a State, in a non-dominant position, whose members are nationals of the State express, if only implicitly, a sense of solidarity oriented toward preserving their culture, heritage, religion or language.
