Barman (2014)

In the pre-colonial literatures (such as Brihatdharma Purana, Brahmabaibartya Purana, Sibayan of Rameswar Bhattacharya and Annadamangal of Bharat Chandra Ray) the Poundras were classified as almost untouchable (as antaja, asatsudra, adhamsankara, etc).
— Barman, Rup Kumar (2014-01-01). "From Pods to Poundra: A Study on the Poundra Kshatriya Movement for Social Justice 1891–1956". Voice of Dalit. 7 (1): 121–138. doi:10.1177/0974354520140108. ISSN 0974-3545.

So many issues in a single line:

  1. Asatsudra did not mean almost untouchable in Brh. P — such an assumption would span over half of the Uttam Sankaras alongside all of Madhyam Sankaras and Adham Sankaras. In any case, Poundras/Pods are not mentioned in Brh. P. and Barman does not provide any source either.
  2. About Bv. P., see my addition to the article.
  3. More later incl. other parts of article.
