Kalita is an ethnic group or a caste of Assamese Hindus belonging to the state of Assam in North East India.[web 1] Kalita is a forward caste and belongs to General or Unreserved category.[web 2] Kalita represents a category in the tribe-caste continuum of Assamese society that is placed between the Keot on one side and Ganak and Brahmin on the other.[4][5] According to historians like S.L.Barua, Kalitas started migrating from North and East India to Assam during the 11th century rule of Dharmapal.[6]
