"Singh" is my legal surname, but "Saroha" is my lineage. My full name is Savir Singh Saroha.

• "Savir Singh" is the name I've used professionally and legally.
• "Saroha" is my gotra, referring to my ancestral lineage/clan.
• In Jat culture, many people simply use "Singh" as a last name, so "Savir Singh" became my default legal identity.
• But "Saroha" is my true family name, the name that connects me to generations before me. It reflects my heritage and the community I come from.
