the annals of Mohyals and my tribute to them:-

Mohyal Brāhmins were Savarṇā Senā and a paramilitary of Āryas that branched from Saraswats. Post the havoc Ashoka reeked undermining Brāhmaṇism, military-industrial complex of Bhāratavarṣa, Brāhmiṇs did their best to fill the vacuum in power structure by taking up kṣatriyaḥ udyoga and numerous Brāhmin Rājyas were established within & outside Bhāratvarṣ. From the time of Paurava the Great who vanquished Alexander's expedition thwarting his aspirations till today Mohyals offer unrelenting service to our Mātṛubhūmī. Hindu Shahi Dynasty established by Mohyals acted as a fortress of Gāndhāra resisting Arabs and Gaznavids for three centuries. Mohyals played a pivotal role in the solidification of Sikhism from Bhai Sati Das, Mati Das, Banda Bahadhur assisting Sikh Gurus, becoming hutatma in the process. Mohyals helped consolidate Sikh empire.

Brāhmiṇs disproportionately represented Swarajya and Swadeshi movements. 70% of the revolutionaries who became amara veeras were Brāhmiṇs. Of which Mohyals formed large numbers along with Bengali Brahmins, Chitpavans, Bhumihars, Tyagis. During partition, Mohyals formed militias to rescue the Hindus & Sikhs. Whenever Jihadis spotted Hindu caravans they attacked them but dared not to attack Mohyal's caravans. British would've clubbed Mohyals as Rajputs had it not been for Arya Samaj's intervention. Because British had an hard time fathoming the existence of militant race within Brāhmiṇ jātis since antiquity. 37.7% of officers at Indian Army are Brāhmiṇs and Mohyals would likely form a large chunk of it.

They lend service to the ingrate state and are thriving in various fields because of their no nonsense attitude. This is deeply rooted in the psyche of martial jatis. Secondly jatis that closely-knit together prosper.

Datt/Datta/Dutta

Datt Datt or Dutt is a Brahmin clan from the Punjab . They are one of the seven clans of the Mohyals who are Saraswat Brahmins of the Punjab. The six other clans are Bali, Bhimwal, Chhibber , Lau, Mohan and Vaid . Most Datts are Hindus , but like most Mohyals, many follow Sikhism and other religions as well; their gotra is Bharadwaj . Some Datt Brahmins migrated eastward and mingled with Bhumihar Brahmins and became one with them Gotra Datts claim descent from Rishi Bharadwaja and derive their gotra from his name. Some consider Gaj Bhavan , the grandson of Bharadwaj to be the real founder of their clan. All Datts are Saraswat Brahmins of Punjab. Etymology The word Datt is derived from the Hindi word daata meaning a charitable person. Some interpreted it as a corruption of the word Aditya which means 'sun' in Sanskrit ; the surname is unrelated to Datta , one of the five clans of Bengali Kayasthas . Traditionally Mohyals of the Datt Clan have the last name

Mohyal Brahmins Mohyal Brahmins (Punjabi-Gurmukhi: ਮੋਹ੍ਯਾਲ, Punjabi-Shahmukhi: ﻝﺎﻴﮨﻮﻣ , Hindi: मोहयाल) (alternate spellings include Muhiyal, Muhial, Mhial, Mohiyal or Mahjal) is the name of an endogamous ethnic group that originates from the Gandhara region and consists of seven Brahmin lineages of that area that left the usual priestly occupation of Brahmins long ago to serve as soldiers and in government services. The community is noted for a long tradition of producing distinguished soldiers- including, among others, India's most decorated General so far. Despite their classification as Brahmins in the Hindu Varna system, they in fact strictly refrain from working as priests- often to the point of excommunicating those who break that tradition.They also do not adhere to many customs and taboos observed by other Brahmin groups, and their regional history and specific customs mark them as a distinct ethnic group as well.
