Siddi is an ethnic group of indo- africa people inhabiting india for centuries their arival on the indian soil is still a topic of conflict amongst scholars but according to some sources it is believed that they were brought to india by Arab as early as 7th century followed by Portuguese and by British later on but those who came here as merchants , sailors and soldiers were free people and the standard of life of each members of the siddi community varied from  place to place.
