Tutsa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tutsa is a Naga tribe living in southern parts of Changlang and the eastern part of Tirap districts of the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh. As of 2001 their population stood at 25,000. The harvest festival of Pongtu is the principal festival of the Tutsa.
The Tutsa are traditionally followers of Animism. Of late, Baptist missionaries partially supported by NSCN have converted some Tutsa to Christianity. The sizeable Christian Tutsa community have formed the Tutsa Baptist Churches Council (TBCC).
