Guys, we've been making tons of contradictory changes to this article. It's a pretty important one for me, as Jandu's my surname. As such, could we please agree on factual information for the article? We can add and discuss additional facts here. If it's not disputed within a week, I'd say it's safe to change/edit whatever fact you post in the talk section. Let's also try to keep the grammar and structure of the sentences at a professional level. References would be nice, too, where available. Hopefully we can get this article up to quality standards. Good luck, everybody.

I'll start: Fact: Jandu is a surname that originated in the Punjab region of northern India and Pakistan.

Question: A Gotra is more of a lineage/clan. As such, is Jandu a Gotra or a surname? Can the two terms be used interchangeably? What is the status of Hindus with the surname Jandu? Did Jandu originate as a Hindu or as a Sikh surname?
