Bhatra - Bhat Sangat Name Groups

Bhat Sangat Name Groups

The Names of the Jarth came from certain tribal groups.

Bhat Sikhs consist of 2 groups, who at around the 16th and 17th century started travelling and preaching Sikhism around India separately and overtime, formed two Bhat groups, Darewal and Landervaser.

Indians that embraced Guru Nanak’s teachings from hearing the Bards of these travellers (Bhats), joined the Bhat Sikhs and became Sikhs. Ending up in Punjab, the Bhat Sikhs adopted surnames which include those from Jat, Tarkhan, Rajput, Khatri, Kambojas, Brahmin and Gujjars. Many Bhats today are influenced by the Nihang sect of Sikhism.

    screenwriter
    Policemen so cherish their status as keepers of the peace and protectors of the public that they have occasionally been known to beat to death those citizens or groups who question that status.
