Hojagiri dance, performed by women balancing bottles and lamps, is associated with which tribe and state?
Reang — Tripura
Hojagiri is a traditional folk dance of the Reang (Bru) community of Tripura. The dance is celebrated for its remarkable balance — performers stand or move on an earthen pitcher while balancing a bottle on the head, with a lit lamp on top of the bottle, and may also rotate other props.
It is performed mainly during the Hojagiri festival celebrating Goddess Lakshmi after Durga Puja. The other listed pairs are unrelated to this dance.
Hence the correct answer is Reang — Tripura.
