Royal Singh Raina says about the surname Raina As Per my Understanding and readings, There was the Person in 16th Century known as Pandit Narain Dass who was prominent Astrologer and worked as an Astrologer in Akbars Darbar. When Akbar decided to conquer Kashmir, Pandit Narain Dass suggests him to conquer next summer. Next Summer Akbar attacked Kashmir along with Pandit Narain Dass and was able to triumph over Kashmir. By seeing the beauty of Kashmir, Pandit Narain Dass decided to stay there. He called his family and settled in Rainawari area of Srinagar. He was blessed with 11 Sons. Some of his family members and grand children settled in Pir Panjal Area (Poonch, Rajouri, Bagh, Palandhri, Sudhnati etc) and Different regions of Kashmir as well. During the course of Aurangzeb, very little population of Raina’s become Muslim. In the start of 18th Century, Many Raina’s become Sikhs in Kashmir and Poonch and Pothowar Area. By this way, you may see Raina in all of the Religions. Now a days, most of the Raina are settled in Kashmir, Jammu and Poonch Region. Small population also lives in Himachal and Punjab( Jallandhar, Patiala, Pathankot, Amritsar etc) and in other parts of India as well. There are so many different stories related to history of Raina. It’s one of them.
