Sourcing
People keep reinstating a poor version of this article. Please note, for example, that this version uses Cunningham as a source (not reliable as it is from the British Raj era) and also a book published by Gyan (see User:Sitush/Common). Thanks. - Sitush (talk) 18:09, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Please let the content be there. Indian surnames have long histories which are not always documented. So your arguments about source seems invalid. And definitely you people are not an authority on Indian culture or surname histories.

 * ❌ - Arguments about lack of sourcing cannot ever be invalid. Verifiability is one of the core policies, unless something is veridfiable in a reliable source it cannot be included. - Arjayay (talk) 16:31, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
