Irfan Raina says about the surname Raina As per my knowledge because i am muslim Raina.two brothers bnsi lal chander and so sarm chander migrated to kashmir in mugal era.they both were belonging to chanderwanshi dynasty.when they migrated to kashmir later maharaja gulab singh welcome them,being Rajput's they placed them as sipa salar of his army because rajputs were fighters and emperors of the state.When revolution of islam came in kashmir few of them converted to islam and Khitab was given to them that Raina Khitab. (Not only who changed their religion bt all dynasty got this khitab)because they were giving their best traning to the defence army of mahraja.Raina was not a cast but later it becoms a cast.with the passage of time some of them migrated to other parts of india.Rainas are few .with different Goathrs...all Rains are one Blood ..some are pandits,musims and sikhs.
