Bhattacharya is not a surname. It is a title given to head priests. They do not have one particular gotra. Refer to Jogendranath Bhattacharya if required. Please change it. Thanks.
 * The source used in the article body clearly mentions Bhattacharya as well as 'five' Brahmin clans
 * [].
 * Changing it is not staying true to the source material. That is synthesis of sourced content 117.203.187.85 (talk) 12:48, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Don't worry. I will remove that source if I get a better article. The fifth brahmin is most probably Ghoshal, who was removed from Kulin status for some reason.2402:3A80:A4B:78E4:39FB:452D:A57E:DAE0 (talk) 16:34, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
 * No reason to remove it since Bromley is a professor of sociology and anthropology and Hopkins was a professor and was the Academic Director of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, so it is a good scholarly source. If you find another scholarly source that mentions another set of five brahmins, we can restructure the para as 'According to Bromley 1989, the five Brahmins are x, y, z .., but according to [new source], the five brahmin clans are a, b, c, ..' something along the lines. 117.203.187.85 (talk) 16:59, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Most of these western scholars are involved in rampant negation. They don't have a clear idea and claim whatever they wish to. Kulagranthas and kulapanjikas are relevant sources.2402:3A80:A6E:5666:B09C:8CE1:A87D:8D6F (talk) 12:18, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
 * In Wikipedia these scholarly sources are considered WP:RS, 'Kulagranthas and kulapanjikas', etc are not, unless they are verified by scholars. 117.201.118.228 (talk) 12:57, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
