Gindauriya—(Sellers of gindaura, a cake of sugar distributed at
marriages, etc.).—A small sub-caste of Banyas, most numerous in Meerut.
They worship Devi, Mahâdeva, Sûraj Nârâyan, the Sun-godling, and
Pârvati, the snake, and the Ganges, and have a special respect for the
cow and the Pîpal tree. Some of them now hold land as landlords or
tenants, and live by Government or private service.
