-If you are not a Kukhran then why are you editing this article? Did you see how much work Anoop put into fixing this page up?

-PLEASE, please do not work on this page UNLESS you CAN CITE credible information which will add to the general accuracy of this page.

-furthermore, just like Anoop said, you went on google and linked us a page created by God knows who which says "they believe" Kukhrans are not a caste? What type of nonsense is this? Kukhrans are one of the most ancient and respected clans of Khatri Punjabis.

 * Notwithstanding the tone above, which represents blatant incivility. You should know that I have reverted vandalism and original researches from the article and haven't added nothing to it. Wikipedia is not a place for original research, no matter how much effort you put in. Please refer to bottom of this page, another user has expressed similar concerns. You have posted comment without researching over revision history. The google search case referred above has been reverted by me some 4 days back after proper discussion with, so there aint any reason for bringing this case after 4 days. You may want to see revision history If you are not a Kukhran then why are you editing this article?- For this you should know that Wikipedia is collaborative edited project. Please make yourself aware of guidelins regarding ownerships and who can edit and who can edit not. STOP THE NONSENSE- Try to be polite, we are civilized people. Aren't We?  :)  Hitro   talk  18:33, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

p.s. its okay to say "kukhran" in speech or conversation, but i agree that if the ancient spelling is Kukhrain then it should be written as so.

Anoop perhaps if you have time you can fix up the Kukhran section on the Khatri page. thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.38.191.11 (talk) 16:58, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

I feel sorry about the confusion between my two friends, but end of it I conclude that both of you are putting up and contesting the same point, then where is the dispute. Further more, Hitro has already helped by reverting the article to the right Etymology, long way back after our sufficient discussions (refer to Hitro's talk page). I am sure that the confusion must have been clear by now. To move ahead further, please also read my reply to the comments of our friend 'Intothefire', discussed at the bottom of this page.

It's still Khukhrain
Dear Hitro

Thanks for the kind consideration and efforts to locate the right spellings. The site that you have reffered http://www.khukhran.com states as follows.... '''We believe Khukhran's don't represent a caste and don't have any relation to a particular religion. They represent a "genealogy" of people that inhabited the same region in India. This area was primarily "Bhera, Punjab (Pakistan)-BHERA, a town of British-India".'''

So Hitro, they don't even consider Khukhrain as any cast from any where in the world....and just imagine a Canadian organisation commenting/publishing such statements about a sub-caste of Indian origin.

On the contrary, why not reffer to the actual official website that is http://www.khukhrain.tk. I am sure this would help you change your views towards it's right diction/spellings.(Anoop Kohli 06:34, 29 July 2009 (UTC)) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anoopkohli (talk • contribs)

Kukhran or Khukhrain
I have been working on the subject for almost a month and started editing and adding to the article almost a little over a week. Regular visitors to this article can make out the difference in terms of details added/altered. But during my wide research I was forced to conclude that almost all the mentions of the word in the references avilable, they spell it as Khukhrain and not Kukhran. Type the word 'Khukhrain' in the google search and find it for yourself. I feel the correction is of utmost importance and must be carried out at the soonest to stop further downloading of wrong dialect to people and generations.

Etymology of Khokran/Khukrain?
Can anybody who knows the history of this tribe well, add a properly cited section about the etymology and origin of the term "Khokran". Another section that would be helpful is how they ended up being a sub group within broader group of Khatris. Regards.--Internet Scholar (talk) 03:46, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Great Work
Its been a great experience to read about the past that has been lost in some folds of the partition of India. I read some simillar details in the site www.khukhrain.tk though, but those details sound dubbious and inassertive. All details there are not true, but indeed some verified and glorified facts have been inserted here that are really important for the knowledge of atleast every Khukhrain and even the rest of the world to know. Great work! Whoever added to the article has indeed done a remarkable job. Congrats!(Sameersuri (talk) 14:07, 23 August 2009 (UTC))

I have a much simillar concern like the one raised by Sameer Suri. The irony is that the administrators of the site www.Khukhrain.tk after having picked up the material from the Wikipedia pages in the recent past, now started claiming the contents as their original copyright material. All the more important is to understand that the content that they copied from Wikipedia to their site is over blended with wrong and original research material that makes the site look awful. So, all those who agree to this issue raised by Sameer, may please help by leaving their comments on this talk page. (Anoop Kohli 03:30, 24 August 2009 (UTC))
 * This is incorrect, and I am going to be removing the edits accordingly in a moment. The website has existed for years with that content, the content that is a copyright violation here only appeared a month ago.  Simply wrong.  Do not, I repeat, do not reassert the material or you may be temporarily blocked from editing.  Keegan (talk) 20:18, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Kegan, you seem to be in a frenzy regarding some details about a site that you claim has existed for years. But how do you claim that the material on it has also been there for those years together? I warn you to refrain yourself from further inappropriate deleation of text added by me or by other users without going into proper discussion and verifications. You have been missusing your rights as an administrator and further dont compell me to rais the issue with the Wiki Management to scrap you as an administrator.(Anoop Kohli 06:13, 8 September 2009 (UTC))


 * Right, good luck with that considering I am a part of the Wiki Management, you will attain nothing. Threaten all you want, copyright violations are not just against policy but also against the law.  If you'd bother to take a moment and check domain registration, you'd notice that my "claims" are facts, and you are breaking the law.  Therefore, good sir, I suggest that you be the one to refrain from further discussion and copyright infringements, or you will be blocked.  You are quite lucky I haven't done so already, as I was assuming good faith.  I will no longer do so.  Do it again, you will be blocked and a checkuser will follow to hunt for sockpuppets.  Please spell my name right if you are going to threaten me, it is not difficult.  Keegan (talk) 20:59, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

GREAT WORK Mr. Anoop Kohli, first of all creating fake account by the name of Sameer Suri and then appreciate yourself by the user you created and then warning the administrators of Wikipedia. If you have done a GREAT WORK then why to delete contents and post of other from this discussion page and even from your talk page Nishant Kohli —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.178.63.49 (talk) 18:53, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Copy Cat

My earlier comments were also deleted by Mr Anoop Kohli, a small suggestion grow up, you are having childhood problem of copying from others, Most of us know where has all these articles come from, This time i am too complaining the matter to Wikipedia as Mr.Anoop Kohli has been trying to copy material from other sites which is violation of copyright Act, I dont know what has happenned to Kohli sahab why the hell is he copying, has the God almighty forgot to put brains in his head, i tried to speak politely but you are not trying to understand now be ready for consequences for copying the matter from www.khukhrain.tk

I thought being Khukhrain you could understand but you are trying to edit wikipedia again, I have written an e-mail to Wikipedia about he matter and hope this artcle wont be changed ever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.161.153.106 (talk) 13:45, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Original research and Vandal Edits
Hi Anoopkohli Notwithstanding your substantial addition to this article refgretfully you have
 * 1) made a large number of additions of Original research without proper citations from verifiable and reliable sources.
 * 2) made numerous vandal edits which include
 * deleting referenced information
 * altering referenced content

Further why have you removed Islam from list of religions

Intothefire (talk) 12:33, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi Intothefire I feel that you have developed a self made presumption that any edits by anyone amounts to an act of Vandalism, which, my dear friend, is not true. It is supportively evident from your comments above, made on 15 Nov 2007, 19 Feb 2008 and again on 4 Oct 2008, about some other users. This shows that you belive in the existence of only YOURSELF. Just learning a word VANDAL, does not justify the use of it everywhere. In adding the text and claims and knowledge, I have always tried to the best of my abilities to provide sufficient references in your interest. So you must confirm first and then make further comments. In my suggestion, you may pin point a particular case instead of just making a catagorised statement as it suits you. Even more, I have never deleted any referenced content either, just because it does not make any sense to do so once any reference support has been provided. So here again, please be specific. Also please refer to the sub-heading named 'Muslim Khukhrain' to further clear any of your doubts regarding the removal of Muslims from the list of religions, as claimed by you. p.s:- Please refrain from making such baseless claims in future, without refering to History and other details first.(Anoop Kohli 05:17, 3 August 2009 (UTC))  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anoopkohli (talk • contribs)

Response 1 from Intothefire
I request you to confirm if you you have also used various other sockpuppet anonymous ips to implement uploading and deleting content. I ask this because there is a distinct pattern, which is apparent. Intothefire (talk) 06:07, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes you are right, its only fair that any accusation by me of vandal edits attributed to you should be substantiated by producing specific instances from the history of posts .And I propose to do just that.
 * 'I also believe that you have been using various sockpuppet' to post
 * Therefore before I begin to provide specific instances regarding your vandal edits
 * As regards original research, my friend the onus is on you to provide citations from reliable and verifiable sources , since you have made massive addition of content without references and not me , in the abscence of which the unsubstantiated content should be removed

Despite all earlier suggestions, you have not shown any significient improvements in your trends of making nonsolicited comments about the work of other contributors, as is also evident in the past (refer to my reply above). On the top of it all, you have now started deviating from the real subject to dilute the basic issue that you raised earlier. Above all the references cited with the texts are just not visible to your eyes. Sockpuppeting may be a tool most suitable to surfers well known to you, who prefer to talk without basis and then bend down on some haywire direction to suit their means. I sincerely reserve a polite sympathy to your current state of mind and thus leave the matter further unsaid for your comforting solace and peace of mind. Goodluck for your future.(Anoop Kohli 11:31, 3 August 2009 (UTC))

On the fourth day, Mahmood , addressing his troops , said he should in person the lead the main attack. " For to day (said he), I have devoted myself to conquest or to death "Beejy Ray, on his part having propitiated the gods , resolved also to combat with his wonted courage. Although the Mohomedans advanced with great impetuosity, they were frequently repulsed with great slaughter ;still however they returned and renewed with ardor their attacks till evening, when Mahmood , his face towards Mecca ,prostrated himself in sight of his troops , and implored the aid of the prophet "Advance advance " cried the King prayers have found favour with God " A loud shout from his soldiers responded their resolution,and the the Mahomedans , pressing forward , compelled the enemy to give ground and pursued them to the gates of the town .  - Mahmood having next morning invested the fort of Bhatea , took measures to fill up the ditch , an undertaking which in a few days was nearly completed .
