Bangal (Bengali: বাঙাল; a.k.a. Purbô Bôngiyô; transl. East Bengali) is a term used to refer to the Bengali people of East Bengal (usually from the areas of Mymensingh, Dhaka, Barisal, Sylhet, Comilla and Chittagong), now in Bangladesh (as opposed to the Ghotis of West Bengal). The term is used to describe Bengalis from the east, who are marked by a distinct Bengali accent.[1] It is usually assumed that the Bramhaputra-Padma river system is the demarcation line between the Western and Eastern wings of the Bengal region. The areas to the East of the Bramhaputra-Padma river system are traditionally held to be the homeland of the Bangal people.
