Some Hindus bury, fyi

I know this is mentioned a lot but this is very rare, i would say < 5 % (anecdotal)
Buried if unmarried, cremated otherwise. I don't know if it's only our tradition.
nope... I know that some castes like Lingayats in Karnataka and Pisharody in Kerala bury all their dead. Probably there maybe more such castes in other parts of India.
