Moazzam Khan says about the surname Bhat Mazhar Butt, if you may give name of the author of the book "Butt Se Bhatti", also mention name of the publisher and its contact nos or email, if you found and provide. i will be grateful of you. What you have said , are very true and represents, your detailed study on the topic. Kashmiri and those who are from the valley and surrounding, had refused to serve in the british army, and shown more loyalty with their faith and they also refused to fire on the holly places. once some body told me that from there, the Kashmiris laid the weapons down on the land and replied "TAPSIS TAY THUS KARSIS", where as people from other parts, those mostly are these days known as Martial shown their utmost obediency to the british and whent to the extent to attack holly places during world war 1 and II.I hardly found any coward kashmiri,they believe inhardwork and are very friendly. however, it is very strange that they flare up in moments and there are conflicts among themselves in the kashmir that resulted to immense loss of lives and property and they are suffering due to which as to today. although they showed act of bravery and valor, but lacking a central command and unity at large. you may please send me over the information, i requested here.moazzamk55@hotmail.com

Mazhar Butt says about the surname Bhat there is a certain ethnic group living in Kashmir (Indian occupied) called ''DAANGARS''. They are certainly not Pundits but an inferior lot...having dirty habits and found near the Dal lake. Mirs are Kashmiri's and yes, they are said to have traveled to Kashmir from Central Asia and some European countries and are also reported to be converts from Jews. Whether Hindu or Muslim makes no difference because most of the casts belong to the higher Pundit dynasty...

Altaf Ahmed Mir says about the surname Bhat The comments came from learned Kashmiris and non-kashmiris are knowledgeable. I'm also belong to a Kashmiri clan known as Mirs. My great grand fathers came to Amratsar in 18th. century during great drought of Kashmir valley. I think Kashmiris came to India from central Asia and Germany in 2000BC, and settled down along the bank of Saraswati river. Most of them spreaded all over India including Kashmir valley as the river water dried up. After partition and even before, most of Kashmiri clan migrated to present Pakistan. Kashmiris generally are known to be strong and well built,fare in complexion and good looking people. There is saying that you must have a big tummy if you'r a Butt. They have tremendous love for food.

Chand Kaul says about the surname Kaul Kaul sirname means 'well born' and came from the priest or high priest background. Mahakaul or the great Kauls is another name for Lord Shiva, and this could also be one of the origins of this name. There are Kauls in Germanic countries too and one of the drivations of the Germanic Kauls is from the Bishop or priests. Just a coincidence as they are other probable origins for the German Kauls. Of course Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru is the most well known of Kauls.

BD Sharma says about the surname Bhat Every one as quoted above must be correct. One most correct thing is that man migrated from one place to another in search of bread, butter, peace, harmony, love and security with out fear of country boundary ie LOC today and found to dwell where ever he like shelter. So better not clash or discuss about this particular BHATT surname. There must be some ancestral common thing in the past which is being discussed today. We all are human first despite of any religion or countryman-ship
