I HEARD KACHCHI LUVANAS ARE KSHATRIYAS OF THE SURYA-VAMSHI LINEAGE AND WEAR THE SACRED THREAD, IE, THE YAGNOPVEET.
I WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THAT COMMUNITY. ALSO I WOUULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT ARE THE KSHATRIYA COMMUNITIES OF GUJARAT.
KSHATRIYA THAT IS AS PER THE CHATURVARNA DEFINITION. THAT THOSE BY BIRTH WHO ARE KSHATRIYAS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE TO UNDERGO THE UPANAYANA CEREMONY TO OBTAIN THE YAGNOPAVEET.
