Can this Kashmiri Pandit family fit in Eastern and Central India?

Can this Kashmiri Pandit (Brahmin) family fit in the states of Madhya Pradesh and Bengal?

^I think they can definitely fit into Maharashtra for instance.

ok I'm posting here but don't give me unnecessary thumb downs and shit.

Yeah, they can pass easily, actually are more typical in Central India than they are in Kashmir valley.

Why do you say that?

They look more robust even if they are darker and most Kashmiris looks that part = Nord-Indid.
e.g., this guy is a brachized Nord-Indid

or this group of Pandits have same phenotype

I think most Kashmiris should pass in Northwest regions, like Punjab and Himanchal Pradesh as well as North-central regions like western Uttar Pradesh and Uttar Akhand but, these types are more common in Kashmir than they are in those regions.

They just look normal to me, not particularly robust unless you compare them to Pygmies or something. And the man in that picture with sun damaged skin is of Gracile type.

I remember posting ^that picture in the Aachal Dogra thread. They look Indid.

^These people represent the typical looks found among Kashmiri Hindus. They would pass as Upper Castes in Punjab, Himachal and parts of Uttar Pradesh. The Upper Castes in other regions of South Asia, such as Rajasthan, have different variety of Indid phenotypes.

That said, among the pictures of Kashmiri Pandits that I've posted here, there are several whose phenotypes are similar to the Pandit family in the O.P.
