Detailed Solution

The caravans of Banjaras are called Tandas. The Banjaras were nomadic people who travelled in search of trade in the past. The Banjaras are significant nomad traders. In a tanda, six hundred to seven hundred people may fit. They were carrying their wives and children as well. They are spread out over numerous Indian states at the moment. They are believed to have initially appeared in Rajasthan, in northern India. Among the deities they are known to adore are Hanuman, Renuka Mata of Mahur, Goddess Bhavani, Goddess Jagadamba Devi, and Balaji. They also show Guru Nanak a lot of reverence. Satya asserts that although the Banjaras were "tolerant and syncretic," their religious views were "ambiguous."
