    There is a large population of Indian Baha'is, however, I don't know how many. Rural areas especially are difficult to collect demographic information on, as every Baha'i is a teacher and the Baha'i Faith spreads organically.

    The gorgeous Baha'i House of Worship in India, which has won many prestigious architectural awards, is the second-most visited place on planet earth.

    You can see if there is more information here.
