Arjun says about the surname Bhat Kashmir has very large history which can't be said in gist. Before 2 century BC , Kashmir was a grazing field, with mild population. As according to Hinduism it is believed that Lord Shiva lives in Himalayas or around. Adishankara , from present day kerala went along with his followers went to Himalayas in search of Lord. First he and his followers decided to stay permanently in kashmiri. His followers where pandits who practice daily pujas and built temples. These people are Bhats. They can be found in West coast of southern india. Later Adishankara moved on. As migration from one religion to another they kept their surname as Bhats.

Prof. S. Kamat says about the surname Raina Very nice discussion. Truth: Raina surname was found in ancient Kashmir read Srivara. All Saraswat Brahmins are Central Asian in origin. Kashmir is Central Asia. Compare The Kashmiri and Tajik, very similar looks structure, etc. All Saraswat Brahmins are pure Aryan. We all are keen to see our Kashmiri Pandit Brothers retain their unique culture, history and ethnicity. Yes the KPs hold the Indian flag high still in the Valley. Ignore foreign propaganda.

Lalit S Jamwal says about the surname Raina I totally agree the Kashmiris are truly Central Asian Aryans and what the Jews are trying to do is to create a confusion in India. Saraswat Brahmins of Afghanistan (the Hindu Shahi Brahmin dynasty) and Kashmir were pretty similar. All Saraswat Brahmins have common origin. Northarasvatī is an exact cognate with Avestan Haraxvatī, perhaps originally referring to Arədvī Sūrā Anāhitā (modern Ardwisur Anahid), the Zoroastrian mythological world river, which would point to a common Indo-Iranian myth of a cosmic or mystical Sáras-vat-ī river. In the younger Avesta, Haraxvatī is Arachosia, a region described to be rich in rivers, and its Old Persian cognate Harauvati, which gave its name to the present-day Hārūt River in Afghanistan, may have referred to the entire Helmand drainage basin (the center of Arachosia).western and Central Asian Aryan orgins. Sarastvati River. To differentiate parts of Afghanistan, Kashmir, Tajikistan is next to impossible since all this region had common borders in the past and most of this territory was part of ancient Aryavarta. Let not the divisive propaganda of the Jews permeate India. I have lived in Kashmir and believe Kashmiri Brahmins are great Indian nationalists. They do however have their unique Central Asian culture which they like to retain. India is a colorfull and must stay colorful. We ruled Kashmir and know the feelings of Kashmiris.
