Khawaja Muhsin Bhat says about the surname Bhat Khawaja is a title, not a caste. Khawaja title is used by well off families who are mostly traders and have lands; it is also used to indicate some connection with sufis. Some Bhats in kashmir including my family use khawaja along with Bhat in the name.

Vibhav Razdan says about the surname Razdan Well i think some kashmiris who r saying that not all razdans are kashmiris, they dnt know anything..... Non kashmiris have surname Raizada not Razdan...every Razdan is a kashmiri pandit... Yes it can be true that may be he is not a full kashmiri due to his mother be of any other caste due to inter caste marriages but if he has a surname razdan that means his father and he himself is a kashmiri pandit.
