Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -One of the biggest influences on the Harappas was a group of Indo-Europeans, also known as Aryans, who began to move into the Indian subcontinent. Carrying with them a religious culture known today as Vedism, the faith of the Aryans melded with the Harappa culture to create very early Hindu traditions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Harappa without doubt is a tributary of Hinduism . Unlike Indo-Aryans whose gods existed in the sky above, the Harappans worshipped trees, a practice Hindus continue even today. They valued bangles, sindoor, masala, and had measurement systems we still use today.

Detailed explanation-3: -The people of Harappa seemed to have worshipped the Mother Goddess and Shiva Pashupati. The Mother Goddess was also known as Shakti; perhaps, they believed her to be the source of all creation. They also worshipped the male god, Shiva Pashupati. He was the lord of the animals.
