My dad's is sikdar they were tax collectors and military officers during the Mughal empire their caste before seems to be brahman
<<yes mostly, but not all Sikdars are either bengali brahmins (erstwhile surname Bhattacharya), who were given the title of Sikdar by britishers. Sikdar means owner of one siki of land (which is 1/4th). They were the zamindars in Bangladesh's Sylhet region.>>
The interesting part though is the zamindar connection they were wealthy aristocrats during the mughal empire.
My mom's side is talukdar they also seem to be off brahmin blood

Strange my ancestors are from high class ancestry at-least in my country and i turned out utter subhuman
