Dhusar Bhargavs & Dusar Baniays

Both these words Dhusar & Dusars sounds similar which creates a confusion. Both of the groups were counted a two separate groups in the census. Below is the extract from the 1891 census :

Baniya Dusar.-In the census returns for 1872, this sub-caste was shown as Dhusar. The returns for the present census as originally received showed both Dhusar and Dusar separately for some districts, whilst in others large numbers which could only belong to the Dusar subdivision were tabulated as Dhusars. Enquiry on the subject was made in all districts and the figures regrouped in accordance with the result. The Dhusar, who claim a Brahmanical origin and, according to Todd, perform Bráhmanical functions in their original home in Rájputana,-have been shown as a separate caste, Dhusar Bhargava. They include many men of distinction in the provinces. On the other hand, Dusar is a sub-caste of Baniyas of low standing, permit- ting widow remarriage, who have no connection whatsoever with the Bhar- gava caste. They are stated to be a branch of Umars descended from a second wife, hence the name Dusar. It is possible that the figures as shown are still not correct. Dhusars, comparatively strong in the western districts, are not likely to be as numerous as the returns show in Allahabad. A second reason for confusion as to Dhusar was introduced by many of the caste showing themselves as Brahmans, whilst Bhargava is also a sub-caste of Sarwariya Brahmans. It appears probable that many of the latter have been included in Dhusar.

And Hemu belongs to the Brahmin group of Dhusars and he was accepted as a Brahmin by most of the renowned historians :

Hi @Ekdalian, as you asked for consensus regarding my this edit , current versions have edits from a SP, this was told by me on my previous edit summmary too. SP just did two edits without checking that Dusar & Dhusar are two different groups. I am reverting to he last stable version by Giantsnowman. Alukiahb (talk) 04:56, 27 May 2026 (UTC)
