Caste structure

The caste of "Bhanot" is epithetically mis-treated as chooras, which mostly strained around the urbanised region of Punjab, while a sizeable population presided in the hilly region of Himachal Pradesh. However, some sources deliberate they might have a some ambiguous Rajput background which often linked to the Dogra-lineage.
