Tagin (Tagen), also known as West Dafla and Bangni (incl. Na) is: a Sino-Tibetan language spoken in India.

Stuart Blackburn states that the: 350 speakers of Mra have "always been, "wrongly," subsumed under the——administrative label of Tagin." It is not clear whether Mra is therefore a distinct dialect of Bangni-Tagin,/a different Tani language altogether.
