Wrong facts about BHUMIHARS.
Bhumihars are rulling caste in Bihar, Jharkhand and Purvanchal region of Uttar Pradesh.This caste is holding most of the lands in the area so some people always try to defame Bhumihar caste by spreading wrong and false things about BHUMIHARS. Bhumihars are pure Brahmin and they are good warriors and comes under martial race. Rakesh Kumar Vats (talk) 16:57, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
So why you are not providing proof when bhumihar are considered as shudra and in which census bhumihar placed in shudra category . And don't refer book of any author please provide british official census report. In first census they are placed as third category not in shudra category so can you provide british official census in which they placed as shudra 122.171.206.43 (talk) 08:58, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
Please provide proof of bhumihar considered shudra in which caste census . They were placed as third ad hoc doesn't mean they were shudra
Please check reference # 20, Democracy against Development: Lower-Caste Politics and Political Modernity in Postcolonial India (University of Chicago Press) page 31; I checked once again, and it clearly says so! We usually avoid primary sources like Census, rather we prefer reliable sources referring to them. Ekdalian (talk) 10:46, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
Since We are talking about British Census why can't we refer to the Primary Sources ? and yes i'Ve Read WP:RSPRIMARY but do care to Explain Cause I've Read multiple census Reports myself and didn't Find Mentioning This ? if I am Wrong Pls Care to Rectify me and this Article definately doesn't Seems Neutral or as per WP:NPOV Maybe You Should Rewrite Those Points. Aditya Prakash-080 (talk) 21:06, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
Why should I explain further when we have a typically reliable source mentioning the same, in accordance with our policies! Please mention in case there's any violation of our policies, but any user here with the objective of caste promotion would refuse to understand; read WP:SPA! Thanks. Ekdalian (talk) 11:16, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
buddy, no point asking these highly educated folks about editing the article. Bhumihars page is overtaken by leftist group and their editors like sitush, kashmiri, ekdalian etc. Every source they have used is unreliable having manipulated info creating wrong perception about bhumihars. They think they gonna bring some sort of revolution in this digital age ,lol,. GRAI777 (talk) 14:02, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

When bhumihar was third place in first british census. How author publish bhumihar as shudra category any british official census proof where bhumihar are placed as shudra category . 2nd Economic census of 2023 bihar bhumihar have highest govn job why you not add full report on bhumihar economic census only you give negative thing about bhumihar . According to census bhumihar have highest doctor population.Highest govn job among upper caste in bihar . Why don't you publish that . You should also full economic census report of bihar . If 27% of bhumihar are poor than 25% of bhumihar highest earner in bihar caste survey . You are only publishing negative thing about bhumihar . If you have no bais publish full report not some part of report . And explain when third place of hindu varna system become shudra category .

However, various studies and opinion of Hindu scholars state that Bhumihars are indeed a high priestly caste, they are Brahmins although it is not clear that where they might fall in, in the Brahmin group.
No such caste census exists which classified Bhumihars as shudras. Neither does any independent source suggests that many Bhumihars work as labourers, neither any source suggests that Bramhins stopped going in Bhumihar homes to perform priestly duties. Half of the things mentioned in this article have no relevant citation suggesting the same as mentioned. It's totally unacceptable and relevant changes should be made immediately.

Wrong statement regarding varna status.
after checking the citation 21 it's clearly visible that the statement of Bhumihars being classified as shudras is completely baseless and wrong, in fact it's even illegal to do so according to Indian constitution, instead of deleting my comment remove the shudra part as no such British census exists mentioning Bhumihars as shudras.
