The Haryanvi people are an Indo-Aryan ethnolinguistic group native to Haryana (Southern Punjab) in northern India. They speak Haryanvi, a dialect of Hindi, and other similar dialects such as Ahirwati, Mewati, Puadhi, Deshwali, and Bagri. The term Haryanvi people has been used both in the ethnolinguistic sense and for someone from Haryana.[1][2][3][4]
