Deol or Sandhu ? - citations please

Last time I checked a few months ago. Baba Deep Singh Ji was described as a Sandhu. And now he has become a Deol. Again no citations have been made for the claim. The historical texts do not describe Baba Deep Singh as Deol or Sandhu or belonging to any other caste group. If we can't get any citations for Baba Ji's caste, could we just leave his name as Baba Deep Singh instead of appending a caste name which is not properly sourced? .

Baba Deep Singh belonged to Sandhu caste. It is a well documneted fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.62.196.200 (talk) 07:46, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Deol or Sandhu?

It is not quite clear which clan or caste Baba Deep Singh hails from, the most common is that he was from a Jat Sandhu tribe, however it has also been heard that he was from a Mazhabi Sandhu tribe. Because of the same surname and the majority of Sandhus being Jats it has been assumed that he came from that caste, even though Sandhu is a name common amongst a number of tribes in Punjab.
