Deengar

Deengar

Deengar is an Indian family name. They are Kshatriyas or the warrior class according to the Hindu Varna system.[citation needed]

The Deengars belong to a very small elite group of highly educated professionals, usually found in executive management positions or as business entrepreneurs. Within the Kshatriayas, Deengars have a distinct identity with Kāyastha or Kayasth, which is a Hindu high caste.[citation needed] Some people even spell it as Dhingra. They are unusually small in number and are scattered all over the world; having originated in North India, they are largely concentrated in the state of Uttar Pradesh in the city of Lucknow in India. Deengars belong to Khirabad in Sitapur district.
