Vibhav Razdan says 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.

Dr. Aslam Wani says Kashmiri Brahmins go by their Gotras based on Aryan Rishis of their origin. The titles are just picked up as nicknames. Thus 11 families is correct.

Sandeep says Jessica- There WAS a time in history when it is said there were only 11 families left in Kashmir - mostly due to overzealous and forcible conversion to Islam. Some of them converted back and as you can see many kashmiri names are based on some action or object associated with a person. The proliferation was natural.

Shanoo Razdan says Razdan's are very a synonym for a kashmiri pandit.

Ashwani Kaul says The purpose of being 100% kashmiri means - "are you sure Razdan's are Kashmiri ?" - The answer to that question is yes. Is every Razdan a Kashmiri - No.

Ash Razdan says I have read about some non-kashmaris in India who have RAZDAN as the last name. I don't believe that the surname is 100% kashmiri.
