What caste are Patel from?

Patels belong to the Upper caste Landlords of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. Next after the Brahmins....they are actually the most dominant upper caste in Gujarat. That is the reason why other castes of Gujarat like Jats,Gurjars,Brahmins,Rajputs(Darbar),Lohana sometimes adopt this surname to mingle with the real upper caste Patels. In caste if a Patel is O.B.C or S.C, he is certainly not a real Patel but is misusing the Upper Caste status of The Patels.

Why so many Patels?

The prevalence of the surname "Patel" primarily stems from its association with the Patidar community in India, particularly in the state of Gujarat. Historically, Patels were landowners and farmers, which contributed to the surname becoming widespread within that group. Additionally, many Patels migrated to various countries, especially the United States and the UK, establishing strong networks and communities that further perpetuated the name. This has led to a significant number of people with the surname globally.

Is Patel a Brahmin surname?

No. It has never been a Brahmin surname. It is isolated to the state of Gujarat. Many lower castes have adopted it. Many use it to hide their true caste. Many use it also to ingrtiate themselves with upper castes. Generally, Patels belong to the schedule tribes, backward class, and some Muslims have adopted it as well. They then make distinctions within their group based on where their family land was from. So coming from a certain district might make them seem higher than the Patels who come from another ragion. In any case they are not and have never been Brahmins despite their duplicity in having others believe they might have been or are.
