As written by another curator

Reservation classification[edit source] I think our source is confusing re: whether or not this community are classified as OBC. It does mention Awadhiya as one of several items in parentheses after the name Hajjam but this is typical of the ambiguity we find in the various government lists and that particular range of pages in the source looks like nothing more than a transcription of Mandal's official list.

Are the Awadhiya connected to the Hajjam, which is apparently mostly a Muslim community, or is the list just meaning those of the Hajjam who live in the Awadh region? Of course, that source was 1991 and much has changed since then. The present Bihar OBC list mentions neither Hajjam nor Awadhiya, although the usual provisos still apply re: these appalling primary sources.

I'm tempted to remove the entire statement on the grounds of uncertainty regarding what the source means, even if not actual unreliability. - Sitush (talk) 17:05, 4 January 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mehulshah123 (talk • contribs)

Hi!

Hi! Whatever editing was done is correct.

Awadhiya is not a caste. The article as edited by you says "The Mandal Commission designated the Awadhiya of Bihar as Other Backward Class in the Indian system of positive discrimination."

The list of Other Backward Class from Bihar is here: http://www.ncbc.nic.in/user_panel/GazetteResolution.aspx?Value=mPICjsL1aLt5iq8E5sHcb9aZw5ZegRBySCH7TfTamcrBZvQJkfhn9Q57N54VaSrW

You will not find any caste by the name Awadhiya. Then why do you say that I have removed 'sourced material'? The actual source, i.e. the link above defies the statements that you have made.

Awadhiya means people from Awadh. That is true.

Further, many jain people including myself use the surname Awadhiya. Jains have never been related to agriculture. They are merchants and traders.

Your article says "Awadhiya (also referred to as Awadhiya Kurmi, Ayodhya Kurmi and Awadha Vansi) is a Hindu subcaste of the Kurmi who believe themselves to be descendants of the mythological Suryavanshi (Solar) dynasty. They claim their origins to be in Ayodhya, which was the ancient capital of that dynasty. The term "Awadhiya" means people of Awadh or Ayodhya."

Kindly state what is the source of the said text? And how would you include the jains who are use the surname Awadhiya in the above-mentioned text?

Hence, kindly revert back the article edited by me.
