Mudiraju not a Sindhi tribe
[edit]I have deleted the category Sindhi tribes, as the Mudiraju are clearly not a Sindhi tribe. Unless you can provide evidence to the contrary, please desist from putting in that category.

Removal of poorly sourced content
[edit]@Balajirakonda: These sources are not acceptable:
- M. M. Ninan: Self-published source
- Mudiraj (book): It's from Alphascript publishing, which publishes Wikipedia articles; not acceptable per WP:CIRCULAR
- mudiraja.com: Does not qualify as a reliable source by any standard -- it's a self-published source aimed at caste glorification, and is full of ridiculous pseudo-history
- krishnaswamymudirajmemorialtrust.org: Again, a self-published source, aimed at glorifying a person (and not about the caste, anyway)
Please see WP:RS: Wikipedia articles should rely on scholarly, academic sources. utcursch | talk 05:16, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

I have seen the article and it is edited by "Almighty34". It says "communities in the Andhra-Telangana region, community in recent years has been influenced by Hindutva ideology and have been more assertive against Dalits". This statement is super personal and cannot be generalized into one community or class. There hasn't been been one particular statement proving this in the recent history and it should be the subject of high risk for other users who read this article. Hence I request you to please check and possibly remove and report the established user who have edited this to his/her personal obligation. Thank you. Vishalsanga99 (talk) 16:43, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Suggestion to Clarify That Mudiraj and Muthuraja Are Distinct Communities by adding the important points
[edit]Main Suggestion:
The Mudiraju or Mudiraj, earlier recorded as Mutracha, is a Telugu-speaking caste found mainly in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They are distinct from the Tamil-speaking Muthuraja community, who are generally considered direct descendants of the Mutharaiyars, a historical Tamil community. While both communities have similar-sounding names, their linguistic, cultural, and historical backgrounds are different.
Suggested changes in the article:
- Lead section: Change:
Change: “The Mudiraju or Mudiraj and Mutrasi, earlier recorded as Mutracha, is a caste found in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.” To:
“The Mudiraju or Mudiraj and Mutrasi, earlier recorded as Mutracha, is a caste found in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.”
To:
“The Mudiraju or Mudiraj, earlier recorded as Mutracha, is a Telugu-speaking caste found in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They are distinct from the Tamil-speaking Muthuraja community, descendants of the Mutharaiyars.”
- See also section :
“Muthuraja – A Tamil community with historical roots in the Mutharaiyar dynasty, distinct from the Mudiraj community.”
