[edit] Punjabi Banias

Dear sir, The word Punjabi Bania in your Wikipedia is not correct due to following region:- 1)Agarwal bania or vaish is on of the largest subcaste of vaish caste

 in India.They are divided in following manner:-

a) According to their places or inhabitation(last two Used only by agarwal people in old days now eliminated)marwari means resident of marwar (all caste and people) including Agarwal bania and jain.

   (1Marwari 
   (2)Purabiye(Eastern)
   (3) Pachihiye(Westran)

b)According to rules:-

   1) Bisa Aggarwal:- twenty rules were subscribed for an Aggarwal of model    character. Those who followed all rules were called Bisa Aggarwal.
    2) Dassa Aggarwals:- followers of ten rules were called Dassa Aggarwals

2) The Agarwal and Jain Community of punjab is migarated from Hindi speaking area mainly Rajasthan and Haryana.

3)Agroha (Hindi Speaking village)is mythological origin(May be right or wrong) of Agarwal during Mahabhartha priod.

4)We are not calling Agarwal or jain community of Nibhoring state of Punjab i.e Jamu and Khasmir and Himachal Pardesh as Khasmiry Bania or Himachaly Bania ,Even the word Haryanbi Bania is not used .

5) The Agarwal and Jain Community is also migrated to other part of country but we are not calling them Bengaly Bania,Bihary Bania Marathy Bania or Nepaly Bania.

6)In hindi speaking area caste system was rigid and only vaish or bania caste people was doing bussinac work in old days but in punjab caste system was not rigid .People of Khatri , Arora and sood caste doing bussinace work of punjab.We can call them bussinac community of punjab.For brrowing other state people you can not create new caste system for punjab.

7) In history we never heared the word punjabi Bania.At present we never call the agarwal or jain caste people residing in punjab as Punjabi Bania.

8) If a Khatri , Arora or Jat caste people of punjab migrate to other part of country can we call them Bihary Khatri ,Arora or Jat ,Bengaly Khatri , Arora or Jat ,Tamil Khatri / Arora or Jat! Even we can not place Khatri , Arora or Jat in caste system other part of India.(Jat are orignal of inhabitation of Punjab ,haryana ,U.P,Rajasthan, etc.)

9) We can call Agarwal and Jain caste as one of the bussinace community

   peole of Punjab not Punjabi Bania.

10)All over India there is no state or language based division of caste system

  for agarwal or jain.So, please do not divide grate Agarwal or  jain people in the     name of State or Language .

Thanks. Arun
