The Somvanshi live throughout northern, western, and central India. Experts say the Somvanshi originally came from Punjab and slowly moved south into central India. Most are Vaishyas, the third of the four main castes of Hinduism. Today the Somvanshi are financiers, business owners, traders and industrialists. Some are involved in the cotton fabric and silk trades. They also work in law enforcement, the military, medicine, entertainment and science.
The Somvanshi hold a relatively high position in Hindu society. Becoming Christians would mean associating with people of lower positions. This is a stigma among Hindus.
Pray that God sends Hindu background believers to the Somvanshi to tell them about Jesus Christ.
Pray that a strong movement to Jesus will bring entire Somvanshi families and communities into a rich experience of God's blessings.
Pray that God will overthrow spiritual forces of darkness opposing the spread of his gospel among the Somvanshi.
