The Moran are an ethnic group found in the northeast Indian state of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. They are mainly concentrated in the districts of Upper Assam and adjoining districts of Arunachal Pradesh. They are of Tibeto-Burman origin and belong to the Bodo Kachari family. They speak Assamese language, though they used to speak Moran language which was alive till the early 20th century that was closely related to the Dimasa language.They once shared the same allied customs with other Bodo-Kachari groups but after their conversion to Vaishnavism, the customs began to diminish but still those customs can be seen intermixed with Vaishnavism. They were among the first peoples who were initiated into Ekasarana dharma by Aniruddhadev in the 17th century.
