| ==People with Banga Surname exist in various Castes==
| | #Redirect [[Banga Saini]] |
| Such as:-
| |
| | |
| 1. ''[[Banga Saini's]]'' — Majority Banga's belong to the [[Saini]] [[Rajput]] caste of Chandarvanshi Descent. To which many Popular Saini Banga Personalities belong. The stronghold of Banga Saini's is in the region of Jalandhar and Nawanshahr districts of Punjab where they are among the leading land owning group.
| |
| | |
| 2. ''Banga Clan of Dogra Rajputs'' — On hills of Himachal Pradesh Banga clan name is also found among [[Dogra Rajput | Dogra Rajputs]] as "Bangwai". Almost 100% of Saini clans are same as that of Hill Rajputs and both groups are of identical
| |
| Chandarvanshi descent. The only difference is that Saini villages fell in Muslim ruled areas where Rajputs were being actively converted to Islam or asked to marry their girls with them. This led to Rajputs on the plains starting to hide their Rajput identity to avoid persecution.

| 3. ''Banga [[Khatri]]'s'' — Banga's of the Khatri are of Similar Roots to the Saini Banga's. It is believed that Since the Banga clan was part of Kshatriya varna, they were included in the Khatri caste as Khatri Community is made up of People of Kshatriya Varna. The Khatri caste is the community consisting of only Suryavanshis (Sun Dynasty) and Chandravanshi (Lunar Dynasty). Banga's of Khatri Community are of Chandravanshi descent just like Saini Banga's are also Chandarvanshi's and the Descendants of [[Shoorsaini]] who was the Grandfather of The Hindu Deity [[Krishna]]. The only major difference is that Saini Banga's also own the Title-Rajput.
| |
| | |
| 4. ''Banga [[Ramdasia]]'s'' — The Ramdasia Banga Community has been Debated time to time. Some claim them to be the Result of Ramdasia + Saini Banga or Khatri Banga Caste Clans Exogamy. As a Result they became outcasts(because If a Higher caste Person married a Lower Caste Person the Higher Caste person were expelled from the Clan), and Some also claim them to be a Totally Different Caste. Most probably Bangle Sellers.

| | |
| 5. ''Banga [[Jatt|Jat's]]'' — A Small Minority of Banga Jatts also Exist. The are believed to be the Result of Marriages between Darbari Jat's and Banga Saini's of Banga Town. There is always been a ambiguity between Rajput and Jatt gotras. For Eg:-Gill, Brar, Sandhu, Sansi, Rathore, Banwait, Virk, Varaich, Sahansi, Hans, Golia, Bola, etc. Either that or they are believed to be the [[Saini]] Rajput's who were Labelled as Jat's by the Prominent Figures of the [[Singh Sabha |Singh Sabha Lehar]] like they did to many Other prominent Clans of other Castes.
