Ramdasia Sikhs

Ramdasia Sikhs origionally had weaving as their prime occupation .Ramdasia is a sub caste of Julaha(meaning weaver) .There are Muslim ,Hindu and Christian Ramdasia too.

Britishers put Ramdasia Sikhs along with Mazhabi in a Regement named "The Light Infantry " Which gave birth to the confusion about thier similarity with Mazhabi or Chamar community .Ramdasias are also many times confused with Ravidasia(Chamars) but Ramdasia's profession was very different which was weaving.

Ramdasia community suffered heavy losses in their profession due to Industrial Revolution in which their work went out of demand. Since then most Ramdasia Sikhs made Farming as their prime profession in Punjab and surrounding regions.

Today Ramdasia Sikhs are mostly into Govt services and also in various other new professions.
