Bansil Family History

The Ramgarhia Tarkhan tribe is known for its occupational name, which reflects their historical trade and craftsmanship.

Originally, the name is derived from baans, meaning ‘bamboo’ or, by extension, ‘wood’ in Hindi.

This connection to material and workmanship is significant in understanding their cultural heritage.

Over time, many members of the Ramgarhia Tarkhan tribe converted to Sikhism, integrating their traditions into a wider religious framework.

Today, they can be found primarily in Punjab and other northern Indian states, contributing to the diverse tapestry of Indian culture.
