Regarding sources heavily/mainly relying on Burton[edit]

It is more suitable to use better sources for sensitive caste related topics. The colonial administrator Burton is considered highly unreliable especially regarding Sindhi Hindus. He considered Sindhi Hindus & Muslims different races. If you want to read in detail regarding his unreliability on Sindhi Hindus & Sindh related stuff, then check out these academic sources:
