The origins of tribes across Pakistan and Hindustan

[Brahmarshi]

Bro this is the same confused chap @Brahmarshi who is always on about eye color, one day he is a Bihari Brahmin, the next from the Kabukl Shahi , he is totally envious of folk who are from the Ghandaran region,,,, he is best ignored and reported.Kudos

Greetings, can you tell me name of the guy who is in your Avatar ?

My old man and that guy looks remarkably similar.

And I belong to Small Kashmiri Community of Pandits, even if you look at my Avatar closely you can see outline of valley there. And I have Honey brown eyes, common eye color in Kashmir.

Kudos

North Indian Brahmins cannot be compared with Rajputs, Pashtuns, Baloch or Kurds.

The closest Indian ethnic group to Pakistani or Iranic ethnic groups are the Kashmiri Pandits who are surprisingly close to Pakistani Sindhis in genetics but still farther compared with Sindhis from groups such as Kurds, Baloch or Pashtuns.

i was comparing Indic Brahmins with Indic Rajputs and Iranic Pashtuns. and closest people to Brahmins in North are Rajputs both ethnically and culturally.

i am a Kashmiri Pandit and we look similar and cluster with other North Indian Brahmans from Jammu, Punjab, Haryana, Himachal and uttrakhand. forget us Pandits, its even easy to spot Iranic people from Koshur Pathans of Valley.

Not that I care but I am curious nonetheless of the origins of Kashmiri Maliks. Grandparents migrated from a village near Srinagar.

Malik was a title given by lords or rulers to zamindars, military leaders, clan chiefs and other occupations that belonged to the upper-level of the social hierarchy.

Maliks were not bound by ethnic, linguistic or cultural factors in comparison to tribes such as Jats, Rajputs, Gujjars and etc... who were. Instead they can be considered an 'occupational/status-origin' tribe.

Very interesting.

Thank you.

Thank you.

No problem. When did your grandparents 'migrate' from Kashmir?

Mine were forced out in 1947 by the Dogra regime and witnessed more than half of the family die.

Gills are Jatts.
Qutub Shahi is used by Awans.
Ghurkis i think are Gujjars.
Bhuttas are a south panjab clan.

I concur, I'm a Jatt Sikh from India Punjab. My mum is Gill and have extended family members with Bhatti surname. Also, Malik is most common surname in Hindu Jats..
